About Hackitect7

I design resilient, secure, economically-sound IT that serves the business.

Overview

Who I Am (and why it matters)

I’m a principal architect focused on reliable, observable, cost-efficient systems. I bridge technology and business: SLAs/SLOs, security, and TCO/ROI. With 22+ years in IT, I see architecture as both engineering and craft — what I call The Music of Systems.

What I Do

Core capabilities aligned to business outcomes. Every service is tied to measurable impact — faster delivery, lower cost, reduced risk.

Architecture

On-prem, cloud, hybrid; reliability, scale, cost controls.

  • Multi-region designs
  • Networking & security baselines
  • Migration & modernization

DevOps & Automation

CI/CD, IaC (Terraform/Ansible), GitOps, platform engineering.

  • Golden images/base layers
  • Policy as code
  • Release safety (progressive delivery)

SRE & Observability

SLO/SLI, incident response, on-call hygiene.

  • Metrics/logs/traces
  • Runbooks & MTTR↓
  • Capacity mgmt

Security & Governance

Least privilege, hardening, ISO/SOC2/GDPR practices.

Business & Strategy

FinOps, TCO/ROI, modernization roadmaps aligned with OKRs.

How I Work

  1. Discover → assess risks, constraints, economics
  2. Design → architecture, security, observability, cost guardrails
  3. Pilot → validate SLOs, performance, cost
  4. Scale → automate, codify, document
  5. Operate → measure, improve, transfer

Engagements include clear deliverables, runbooks, and decision logs.

Results that speak for themselves

SRE

MTTR -55% and alert fatigue -60%

Introduced SLOs, unified alerting, and incident workflows.

  • Unified runbooks
