The stack is container-native (Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift) with stateful backends (Couchbase, MongoDB, Kafka, RabbitMQ), reflecting infrastructure engineered for reliability under load. Active projects center on disaster recovery, CI/CD pipelines, and distributed systems—paired with pain points around downtime and scaling—indicating a company wrestling with availability and velocity as it grows transactional volume.
