Hey, I'm Andrea 👋

Software and platform engineer focused on site reliability, DevOps, and infrastructure. I recently graduated from the University of Miami with a B.S. in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics.

I build small, production-like systems: containerized services on AWS, automated with CI/CD and infrastructure as code, monitored with real alerting and runbooks. My homelab is where I pressure-test all of it before it matters.

I'm currently looking for DevOps / SRE / Platform / Infrastructure roles where I can help teams ship faster, automate reliably, and keep customer-facing systems stable.

What I've Been Building

Homelab · Production-Grade SRE/DevOps Platform

3-node Proxmox HA cluster and 6-node Kubernetes HA cluster, fully managed through GitOps. Argo CD and self-hosted GitHub Actions for CI/CD. Terraform, Ansible, and Packer for IaC. Zero-trust networking with HashiCorp Vault, Cloudflare Zero Trust, WireGuard, and NGINX ingress. Observability via Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager. UPS-backed compute with automated DR: ZFS replication, scheduled zstd snapshot backups to NAS, and off-site backups to Cloudflare R2.

RTO ≤ 3 min · RPO ~15 min · 29 stacks / 95 containers

Houndarr · Automated Search Companion for *arr Apps

Open-source, self-hosted tool that works alongside Radarr, Sonarr, Lidarr, Readarr, and friends to search for missing library items in polite, rate-limited batches instead of hammering APIs all at once. Features configurable batch sizes, per-item cooldowns, hourly API caps, download-queue backpressure gating, and a dark-themed web dashboard built with FastAPI, HTMX, and Tailwind CSS. API keys encrypted at rest (Fernet/AES-128-CBC), bcrypt auth, CSRF protection. Distributed as a Docker image and Helm chart. Publicly released and reached 90+ stars and 1.3k+ Docker pulls in two days.

FlaskKeyring · Zero-Knowledge Password Manager

Full-stack password manager with client-side AES-GCM encryption, secure REST APIs, and email verification. Python, Flask, PostgreSQL.

BridgeChat · Real-Time Translated Chat

Semester-long software engineering class project where I pitched the idea and solo-developed the prototype: a real-time chat app with on-the-fly translation across languages. The course focused on SDLC practices, team workflows, and development models rather than coding itself, but I built a working demo for our final presentation. Voted best project of the semester by the class (won both the mid-semester and final presentation votes).

IndexNet Engine · Search Engine Simulation

Java-based search engine using PageRank, web crawling, and B-Tree indexing.

Portfolio · Personal Site

Responsive portfolio built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. Self-hosted with Dokploy.

.dotfiles · Dev Environment Automation

Cross-platform, architecture-aware shell scripts for bootstrapping dev environments on macOS, Linux (Arch/Debian), and WSL.

Lean, fast Neovim setup built with Lua. Optimized for actual productivity, not just looking cool in screenshots (though it does that too).
