Hi, I'm

Sohal Sudheer

What I Do

I automate and ship. I design and rebuild CI pipelines, deploy runners, and build pipeline suites from scratch, with a focus on the developer experience, including AI-assisted tooling.

I build security into delivery. I integrate scanners like Trivy and OpenSCAP into pipelines, and I develop custom scan tooling so checks run by default and meet unique team needs.

I test and observe. I build load-testing suites with k6 to see how systems behave under stress.

I run AI infrastructure. I administer local AI servers and support Kubernetes-based deployments of AI products.

I teach. My background as a STEM educator, from working with the Northern Virginia Science Center Foundation to presenting at the US Science and Engineering Festival, shaped how I work. I document what I build and share what I learn.

Toolbox:
GitLab CI · Shell Scripting · Python · Docker / Podman · Kubernetes · Trivy · OpenSCAP · Gitleaks · k6 · Grafana · Splunk
