👋 Hi there, I am Dariusch

I am a Software Engineer at ❤️ and a DevOps & ☁️ Engineer by choice!

My tech stack

Daily Toolkit

I am a big fan of GitHub and GitHub Actions! Yes, I did work with GitLab and its CI before but always made my way back to GitHub. My 14" Macbook Pro (M1 Pro) is my daily companion, running iTerm2 as my terminal emulator with zsh, Oh My Zsh and powerlevel10k. Have a look at my dotfiles.

Languages & Frameworks

I am a Senior in Ruby and Ruby on Rails and have some experience in Python and Go. I am not a big fan of Java and the JavaScript ecosystem. For most of the time, I used to create RESTful APIs until I came across Protocol Buffers and gRPC, both technologies are great and you should try them out! Also, I'm eager to check out connect.build in the future, and get some more experience using Go.

Cloud & Infrastructure

I have some experience in AWS, but I will always choose Google Cloud in a heartbeat! I provision my infrastructure via Terraform, it is part of my daily work since v0.12. I managed a fair amount of mostly managed Kubernetes clusters throughout my career, so creating and maintaining Helm-charts was/is daily business. My preferred way of applying those is via Flux and Flagger. For monitoring, I love to use Prometheus and Grafana, preferably via the prometheus-operator. Exporting Metrics, Logs and Traces to Grafana Cloud via the Grafana Agent is also great. I used to maintain an Istio service mesh but I would always choose linkerd2 for its simplicity.
