About
OpenShift platform engineer with hands-on experience building OCP clusters on vSphere (bastion-host installs, VIP networking, OAuth/log forwarding/storage setup) and troubleshooting real-world install failures like IP exhaustion from incorrect subnet sizing. Also supported a client migration away from VMware by implementing OpenShift Virtualization, using the migration toolkit where possible and creating runbooks/YAML automation for manual migrations when workloads were incompatible.
