PROFILE

Michael Hotan

Michael Hotan contributed to the unionai/helm-charts repository by developing Azure BYOK support with AKS provisioning, integrating Helm charts to enable secure, customer-managed key deployments on Azure Kubernetes environments. He introduced Terraform modules for repeatable infrastructure provisioning and enhanced Helm templates to support Azure storage and identity management. In subsequent work, Michael implemented BuildKit-based Image Builder integration in the dataplane Helm chart, adding deployment templates, conditional resource gating, and permission hardening. Using Go, YAML, and Terraform, he focused on improving deployment reliability, security, and operational consistency, demonstrating depth in cloud infrastructure automation and Helm-based CI/CD pipeline engineering.

May 2025 monthly summary for unionai/helm-charts: Implemented BuildKit-based Image Builder integration in the dataplane Helm chart with templates for deployment, service, configuration, and HPA. Introduced gating so BuildKit resources are provisioned only when imageBuilder.enabled and imageBuilder.buildkit.enabled are true; updated operator service account permissions; updated Chart.yaml appVersion; cleaned up image builder test definitions; updated defaults to non-rootless and added ephemeral storage for BuildKit resources. Completed Dataplane Helm Chart 2025.05 release with knative-operator upgrade to 2025.5.0 and associated core/version bumps. These changes improve deployment reliability, security posture, and build performance for dataplane deployments.
