I'm Shivam - a Site Reliability & Platform Engineer building production-grade infrastructure for Kubernetes at scale.
Currently at Obmondo, operating 50+ production clusters across AWS, Azure, Hetzner, and bare-metal with Cluster API and ArgoCD. I build tools that make infrastructure legible - CLIs, agents, controllers, and kernel-level observability.
Active in the open-source ecosystem:
- LFX Mentor & Mentee - Linux Foundation
- GSoC Mentor - OWASP BLT
- Contributor - CNCF ecosystem
My core focus:
- Platform Engineering → Kubernetes, Cluster API, GitOps, multi-cloud infra
- Reliability & Observability → Prometheus, eBPF, SLO/SLI, incident response
- Systems Programming → Go, Linux internals, low-overhead instrumentation
I care about systems that don't just work - but explain why they break.
Location: Patna, Bihar, India Education: B.Tech - Computer Science & Cybersecurity, VIT University Focus: SRE • Platform Engineering • Kubernetes • eBPF • Go Building: Kerno - eBPF incident diagnosis for Kubernetes
Kerno · Flagship
eBPF-powered Kubernetes incident diagnosis engine.
Traces kernel signal dimensions - syscall latency, TCP flows, OOM events, disk I/O, scheduler delays, and FD leaks - and ships a deterministic rule engine with optional LLM enrichment. kerno doctor produces a production-grade postmortem in seconds, not hours.
