πŸ‘‹ Hey, I'm Anil (askb)

Senior IT Engineer | Release Engineering β€’ Infrastructure Automation β€’ AI-Assisted Development

LinkedIn Twitter Keybase Email


πŸš€ About Me

Senior IT Engineer at The Linux Foundation, specializing in release engineering, cloud infrastructure automation, and developer tooling. I architect and maintain CI/CD pipelines that power some of the largest open source projects, focusing on scalability, reliability, and intelligent automation.

Currently exploring AI/ML integration in DevOps workflowsβ€”building intelligent tooling, experimenting with LLM-assisted development, and finding ways to make infrastructure smarter and more autonomous.

When I'm not optimizing build systems or experimenting with AI, you'll find me on two wheels (🚴 bicycle or 🏍️ motorcycle) or exploring trails on foot πŸ₯Ύ.

πŸ”§ Core Competencies

  • Infrastructure Engineering - Cloud platforms, container orchestration, distributed systems
  • Release & Deployment Automation - CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, deployment strategies
  • Developer Experience - CLI tools, APIs, workflow optimization, productivity automation
  • AI-Assisted Development - LLM integration, intelligent tooling, automated workflows
  • Infrastructure as Code - Declarative automation, configuration management, immutable infrastructure

🌟 Featured Projects
