Hey there, I'm Codey Nham Chan Vi, your 1-on-1 Dev(Sec)Ops Coach.

So, you're looking to learn more about me. Well, I'm a Senior Dev(Sec)Ops Engineer at Tekos Interactive, and honestly, I love what I do. Basically, I'm all about making sure your systems are not only running smoothly but also super secure. I've been tinkering with IT for over 16 years, and the last 4+ years have been full of Pure DevSecOps magic!

What Gets Me Excited?

Honestly, I get a kick out of building stuff that just works. You know, those systems are always up and secure and just make life easier. Here’s what I’m good at:

  • Automating almost everything: Because who has time for manual work? But need to decide what to automate and what not to automate.
  • Making deployments a breeze: CI/CD pipelines? That's my jam.
  • Security from the get-go: I weave security into every step; GitOps helps me most.
  • Containers and Kubernetes: Think of me as a container whisperer.
  • Configuration Management: I love monolith.

My Tech Toolbox

  • Cloud Stuff: I speak the AWS language now and am learning to speak Azure and GCP.
  • Containers: Docker and Kubernetes are my best friends.
  • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform and Terraspace keep things organized.
  • Immutable Deployment: GitOps by ArgoCD keeps my brain free.
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions and ArgoCD make life easy.
  • Security Tools: SAST and DAST? Check!
  • Keeping an Eye On Things: The ELK stack helps me stay on top of everything.
  • Automation: Python, Bash, Ansible, and Packer are my trusty sidekicks.
  • Compliance: I make sure we play by the rules.

Some Projects I'm Proud Of

Project 1: Fully automated Dental SaaS Platform with IaC, CM, CI/CD, GitOps, EKS on AWS.

  • I built up all environments with Terraform/OpenTofu and Terraspace.
  • I built a super slick CI/CD pipeline for microservices using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD.
  • I threw in some security tools to keep things safe.

Project 2: Fully automated single instance deployment with IaC (Terraspace/OpenTofu), Configuration Management (Ansible, Packer), CI/CD (Github Actions) with backup and monitoring solution on AWS

  • I built up the entire Dev(Sec)Ops workflow to deliver production.
  • I built a smooth CI/CD pipeline for monoliths using Github Actions.

Project 3: Standardize Terraform, Ansible, Project code with templating tools.

  • I set up the Copier to template all the Deployment workflows.
  • Making standard for all the setup to reduce human errors.
  • I deployed new infrastructure faster than 3x times.
