About Me
Senior Backend & DevOps engineer focused on making systems reliable. I build Python-driven tools on Linux, Kubernetes, and CI/CD to keep distributed systems healthy.
I like simplifying environments and release pipelines so teams can ship and operate confidently. Recent work: platform tooling for a Flux-managed Kubernetes microservice stack on the U.S. Space Force’s PTES program.
My projects and dashboards run on my local k3s: see scm.bstein.dev and metrics.bstein.dev.

SummaryThe Titan Story
atlas + oceanusTitan Lab is my 25-node homelab with a production mindset: security, monitoring, and repeatable changes. The core is Atlas, a GitOps-managed k3s cluster where most services are reconciled by Flux.
Oceanus is intentionally separated for validator workloads while still feeding data back into the same observability stack. Storage is tiered with Longhorn (astreae for system data and asteria for user data), fronted by Traefik and backed by centralized identity via Keycloak.
