Software Engineer | Infrastructure & DevOps Specialist
I build distributed systems and infrastructure that handle massive scale—from real-time trading systems processing thousands messages per second to monitoring platforms ingesting 500k+ samples per second. My philosophy: the best code I've ever written is no code at all.
The first power-aware monitor manager for Hyprland. An event-driven display configuration tool with interactive TUI, profile-based switching, and real-time power state monitoring. Think Autorandr+Arandr, but purpose-built for Hyprland.
I specialize in:
- Cloud-native infrastructure: Kubernetes, Terraform, GCP, AWS
- CI/CD optimization: Reducing pipeline times from hours to minutes
- Observability & monitoring: Prometheus, Loki, Grafana at scale
- Distributed systems: Real-time trading platforms, microservices architecture
- Infrastructure as Code: Ansible, Terragrunt
- Build systems: Bazel, Pants, Buck, you name it
I write about infrastructure, observability, and system administration at filipmikina.com. Recent topics include:
- Hyprland automation and window management
- Observability infrastructure with Grafana Loki
- Practical DevOps and infrastructure patterns
- Real-world distributed systems challenges
