PROFILE

Dylan

Worked on the OCP-on-NERC/nerc-ocp-config repository, delivering robust cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes platform enhancements over nine months. Focused on cluster management, configuration management, and DevOps practices, the work included operator upgrades, GPU accelerator integration, and multi-cluster readiness for MongoDB. Leveraged YAML and JSON for declarative infrastructure as code, applying Kustomize overlays and OpenShift Operator Lifecycle Management to streamline deployments and upgrades. Implemented monitoring dashboards with Grafana and Prometheus, improved access control via OAuth, and aligned test and production environments for reproducibility. The approach emphasized automation, security, and operational risk reduction, supporting both development and production reliability across environments.
