About
IBM Power/AIX engineer with hands-on ownership of large AIX 7.1/7.2 environments (VIOS, HMC/vHMC) supporting enterprise middleware/back-end workloads. Demonstrated real production incident handling: identified CPU entitlement underprovisioning after a DLPAR change and restored performance via live CPU rebalancing, plus PowerHA failover execution and runbook/process hardening. Also builds secure CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/GitLab/Azure DevOps with CyberArk) and Terraform IaC with drift management and controlled rollouts.

Key Strengths
- End-to-end troubleshooting of AIX production performance issues (scope/timing correlation, root cause to fix)
- Deep IBM Power/AIX virtualization tuning (CPU entitlement/shared processor allocation; live DLPAR adjustments)
- Production PowerHA incident triage and controlled failover execution with post-incident runbook improvements
- Structured migration/cutover execution with rollback criteria, checkpoints, and stakeholder coordination
- CI/CD pipeline hard-failure diagnosis (credential rotation/authentication) and prevention via pre-deploy checks/logging
- Terraform-based environment provisioning with disciplined drift reconciliation and staged promotion to production

Chengzhu He
Staff/Principal Cloud Infrastructure Engineer specializing in Kubernetes and OpenStack
“Platform/backend engineer focused on Kubernetes at scale: built a Java control-plane service for multi-region cluster provisioning/monitoring/upgrades using Kafka-driven async workers, and solved peak-load provisioning failures by eliminating blocking I/O and dynamically scaling consumers. Also shipped an LLM-assisted Kubernetes troubleshooting/remediation feature that pulls Prometheus logs/metrics into prompts and uses guardrails (confidence thresholds + human-in-the-loop) to prevent risky actions.”
