PERSONAL ENGINEERING / MY WORK

My Work

Projects exploring the operational questions behind the writing: how to investigate a cluster, and how to make a safer permission decision.

01 / Kubernetes operations

kx

A focused workspace for Kubernetes operations.

  • Kubernetes
  • Operations
  • FinOps
  • Guardrails
Engineering project

A Kubernetes-focused CLI exploring investigation, diagnostics, guardrails, FinOps and safer operational workflows for platform teams.

The problem
Kubernetes investigations are scattered across commands and operational context.
The approach
Explore diagnostics, guardrails and cost awareness in a focused command-line workflow.

Explore the context

The repository requires access. The public Kubernetes guide covers the architecture behind this area of work.

02 / AI & cloud security

iam-zero

Evidence for a narrower permission boundary.

  • IAM
  • Cloud security
  • AI agents
  • Least privilege
Engineering experiment

An agentic IAM auditor exploring how cloud activity and evidence can help inform safer least-privilege policy decisions.

The problem
Least-privilege decisions need evidence about how permissions are actually used.
The approach
Connect cloud activity with an agent-assisted IAM review and a human decision point.

The accompanying article explains the least-privilege approach, its evidence and the role of human review.
