Work

What I've built and changed, one page each: where it started, what I decided and what I turned down, what went wrong, and what came of it.

The work

Modernizing the enterprise container platform Medavie Inc. · 2025–2026
Moving Medavie Inc.'s containers off a capacity- and licence-constrained Mirantis platform onto VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service, instead of growing the old platform or borrowing capacity from non-production.
Consolidation as an operating-model change Medavie Inc. · 2026–now
Shifting infrastructure planning from like-for-like refreshes to shared enterprise platforms, with each consolidation gated on capacity and licensing, and its cost made visible to the business that uses it.
Building the Drill Routine Simulator to last drillteamroutine.com · 2026
A browser simulator for Canadian Armed Forces drill: the engine rewritten before the backlog, a feature removed because it was wrong at the premise, a cloud design simplified before anything was deployed, and two incidents that each became a rule.
Automating Oracle database lifecycle operations Two public repositories · 2022–2024
Codifying how an Oracle database is patched and installed, not just the commands: the change ticket, the checks, the downtime, the patch and the notifications, as separate Ansible pieces.
