Work with me
Two things I do outside the day job
Teaching the platform layer to teams who inherited one, and building sites for people whose work deserves better than a template.
DevOps training & coaching
For teams who inherited a platform nobody understands
Six years of building this layer for consumer-scale companies, taught the way I'd want to learn it: real clusters, real pipelines, real incidents. Not slides about what Kubernetes is. We break something, then you fix it, and you keep the runbook.
Who it's for
- ▸Teams moving from VMs to Kubernetes and unsure what changes underneath
- ▸Engineers who can run kubectl but can't debug a CrashLoopBackOff at 2am
- ▸Orgs whose CI works because one person remembers how
- ▸Individuals switching into DevOps who want a route that isn't a certificate mill
What it covers
- ·Kubernetes in anger — scheduling, probes, resource limits, the failure modes
- ·CI/CD with security baked in, not bolted on: SAST, artifact provenance, short-lived credentials
- ·Terraform and GitOps that survive more than one engineer
- ·Observability that answers questions, and alerting people don't ignore
- ·Cloud cost work that doesn't quietly trade away availability
- ·Incident practice on a real cluster, including the debugging commands
Websites for content creators
You have an audience. A Linktree is not a home.
A site that looks like you rather than like a template — motion, 3D, the kind of thing people screenshot. Built on the same stack as this portfolio, which is the demo. Fast, works on a phone, and yours to keep.
Who it's for
- ▸Creators outgrowing link-in-bio pages
- ▸Photographers and videographers who need work to load fast and look right
- ▸Anyone whose brand deserves better than a drag-and-drop builder
- ▸Small studios wanting something bespoke without agency pricing
What it covers
- ·Custom design — no themes, built around your work
- ·3D and motion where it earns its place, not everywhere
- ·Genuinely fast: static rendering, optimised images, real mobile testing
- ·Analytics you own, in a spreadsheet, not a dashboard you rent
- ·Contact and booking forms wired to your inbox
- ·Deployed on your domain, with the handover documented
Both are evenings and weekends alongside a full-time role, so I take a small number at a time. Mail me directly at ck.shrini@gmail.comif you'd rather skip the form.
