Dino Leung
Platform Engineer
Owned production infrastructure and developer enablement through practical, repeatable systems.
About
I work across AWS, Kubernetes, GitOps, CI/CD, observability, and secure cloud operations, turning platform requirements into systems developers can use without fighting them. I care about reliability, clear deployment paths, and repeatable environments, which is also why NixOS and reproducible local setup interest me.
Experience
For over six years I was the primary platform engineer behind a SaaS product aligned with $5-7M in business value, owning and continuously improving the Kubernetes cluster that powers single-tenant sites across multiple continents. I led the adoption of GitOps for safer, repeatable delivery, and led a Crossplane migration to manage cloud infrastructure through Kubernetes-native control planes.
Track record
- EKS platform ownership Owned the production Kubernetes platform behind single-tenant SaaS sites across multiple continents.
- FluxCD + Crossplane GitOps Migrated cloud infrastructure management into Kubernetes-native control planes with repeatable GitOps delivery.
- Production ingress migration Moved production ingress from NGINX to Traefik while preserving service availability and deployment clarity.
- Reproducible dev environments Use Nix to make local tooling and project setup explicit, repeatable, and easier to recover.
