Over a two-month period, contributed to the cozystack/cozystack repository by building and enhancing Kubernetes backup and restore capabilities. Developed a Velero-based BackupJobs controller and a RestoreJob controller, enabling automated, policy-driven backup and recovery workflows for both Kubernetes and VM workloads. Led an API overhaul for BackupClass, introducing cross-namespace configuration, immutable policies, and improved reconciliation logic. Automated changelog generation using Gemini AI within GitHub Actions, streamlining release documentation. Enhanced the Backup Plans dashboard UI with new forms for user-driven backup management. The work demonstrated depth in Go programming, Kubernetes operator patterns, API design, and CI/CD automation for cloud-native infrastructure.
Monthly summary for 2026-01 – cozystack/cozystack focused on delivering scalable backup configurations, expanding coverage to VM workloads, and stabilizing the backup/restore workflow. Highlights include a comprehensive API overhaul for BackupClass, a new RestoreJob controller, and UI enhancements to empower operators with safer, policy-driven backups. The work emphasizes business value through improved reliability, cross-namespace configuration, and streamlined operational tooling.

December 2025 was focused on strengthening release transparency, automation, and Kubernetes data protection. Key features delivered include: release notes/documentation updates for v0.38.3/v0.38.4 (main project) and v0.39.0/v0.39.1 (Cozystack), and an automated changelog workflow that uses Gemini AI in GitHub Actions to generate changelogs for tagged releases. A Velero-based BackupJobs controller was implemented to manage Kubernetes backups with a Velero strategy and a functional Reconcile implementation. Impact: clearer, faster release communication; reduced manual effort in changelog maintenance; improved backup coverage and reliability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: CI/CD automation, AI-assisted tooling, GitHub Actions, Velero, Kubernetes operators/controllers, Go.
