Ozzzik developed and maintained the InfiniBox CSI Driver and its Kubernetes operator within the redhat-openshift-ecosystem/certified-operators repository, focusing on declarative storage management for OpenShift environments. Over 11 months, Ozzzik engineered a series of feature releases that introduced and iteratively enhanced Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs), RBAC policies, and ClusterServiceVersion manifests, enabling Kubernetes-native provisioning, lifecycle management, and snapshotting of InfiniBox storage. Using YAML and Kubernetes Operator SDK, Ozzzik ensured robust integration with Kubernetes storage APIs, improved automation, and streamlined governance. The work demonstrated technical depth in cloud storage orchestration, with a strong emphasis on release traceability, security, and operational reliability.
