What I Build
Declarative platform operations for containerized workloads: ingress/routing, secure defaults, workload isolation, storage strategy, and repeatable deploy pipelines.
Platform Engineering • Kubernetes • GitOps
Yornik Heyl
Building and operating reliable, observable infrastructure with Kubernetes and GitOps. Current work centers on a production-style self-hosted platform: hardened ingress, media services, DNS automation, and end-to-end monitoring, all managed from Git.
What I Operate
A continuously improving homelab platform running real services (media, monitoring, identity, collaboration) with practical SRE guardrails and incident feedback loops.
What I Value
Clean architecture, measurable reliability, and pragmatic delivery. Infrastructure should be easy to reason about, recoverable under pressure, and straightforward to evolve.
