Hi there! 👋

I’m Govind Yadav, a software engineer with over a year of experience, focused on Cloud & DevOps. I enjoy building the infrastructure that keeps software running reliably — CI/CD pipelines, containerised deployments, Kubernetes clusters, and everything in between.

What I Do

My day-to-day sits at the intersection of development and operations:

  • Infrastructure & Cloud — provisioning and managing cloud environments on AWS and Hetzner, working with Linux servers, networking, and storage.
  • CI/CD & GitOps — designing automated pipelines with GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Kubernetes to ship software safely and fast.
  • Containerisation — Docker, Docker Compose, and Kubernetes (K3S) for packaging and orchestrating applications at scale.
  • Backend Engineering — building server-side systems in PHP (Laravel), Go, and Node.js that the infrastructure actually runs.

Skills & Technologies

  • Languages: PHP, Go, JavaScript, Bash
  • Frameworks: Laravel, Node.js, VueJS
  • Databases: MySQL, MongoDB
  • DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes (K3S), ArgoCD, Ansible, Jenkins, Nginx
  • CI/CD: GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, GitOps workflows
  • Cloud: AWS (EC2, S3, IAM, Cloudfront), Hetzner
  • OS: Linux — Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora

Why I Write

I write about the things I work through — DNS, TLS, web servers, containers, networking. If something took me time to figure out, it’s probably worth a post so someone else doesn’t have to.

Open to cloud/DevOps roles, infrastructure projects, and interesting engineering conversations.
