Welcome to HomelabForge
Production DevOps for Homelabs
Platform/DevOps engineer in Dublin bringing production-grade DevOps to homelabs and small teams. I write reproducible guides with Terraform, Ansible, Proxmox, CI/CD and security hardening—always with code, diagrams, and benchmarks. Currently publishing at HomelabForge and open to impactful platform work.
Mission. Bring production-grade DevOps to homelabs and small teams with clear, reproducible guides you can copy, adapt, and ship.
What to expect
- IaC with Terraform & Ansible
- Platform: Proxmox, Kubernetes, containers
- Pipelines: CI/CD, testing, pre-commit
- Security: least privilege, secrets, hardening
- Design: diagrams, templates, checklists
Principles
- Production first — patterns from enterprise, adapted to home.
- Reproducible — everything as code, minimal clicks.
- Measurable — benchmarks, before/after, numbers.
