Mikhail Naletov is a Senior Cloud Engineer based in Riga with over eight years of hands-on experience building and optimizing cloud-native infrastructure and CI/CD for high-load Kubernetes environments. He has led GitOps and Terragrunt-driven infrastructure transformations that significantly cut deployment times and reduced operational overhead across startups and scale-ups. Comfortable across AWS, GCP, and self-hosted platforms, he combines Terraform/Terragrunt, Helm, and Ansible expertise with practical cost-optimization and observability work (Prometheus/Grafana). An active contributor to the core Ansible repository—improving its terraform module and Zabbix integrations—he brings both production-grade engineering and open-source discipline to team-scale infrastructure problems. Notably, he has a track record of migrating teams from Terraform to Terragrunt and introducing GitOps patterns that make multi-environment provisioning repeatable and auditable.
