Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Braverman is a DevOps and Systems Engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating resilient infrastructure for high-throughput, production-critical environments, currently supporting a private HFT hedge fund. He combines a software generalist’s mindset with deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, Terraform, Consul, Vault, GitLab CI, Prometheus/Grafana and a wide Linux ecosystem to run and recover complex clusters at scale. Michael has driven end-to-end infrastructure rewrites, implemented SRE practices across nearly 100 VM footprints, and notably recovered a production Kubernetes cluster after total TLS certificate expiry. He brings a pragmatic automation focus—authoring tooling like an Ansible inventory diagram generator and Rust CLI utilities—to reduce toil and streamline operations. Comfortable across Python, Bash and systems languages, he also bridges security and release engineering by hardening images, integrating scanning tools, and accelerating merge-to-release cycles. Based in Dubai, he pairs design and philosophy training with practical engineering, giving him a thoughtful approach to system design and operator experience.
