Platform Architecture That Scales With Your Team
I help engineering teams get the architecture right from day one. Kubernetes and internal developer platforms that raise developer productivity, cut deployment times, and scale with both your team and your workload.
Developers Who Ship, Not Wait
The biggest productivity killer in most teams is waiting. For environments, for approvals, for ops. A well-built internal developer platform replaces tickets with self-service, so the path from commit to production is minutes, not days.
- Internal Developer PlatformsSelf-service environments and golden paths, built on kuberise.io, so developers deploy without opening a ticket.
- CI/CD & AutomationPipelines that take a commit to production in minutes, with testing and rollback built in.
- Platform StrategyA pragmatic roadmap for what to build, what to buy, and what to skip, so the platform scales with the team instead of ahead of it.
AI, Built Into the Platform
I build AI platforms that host and serve LLMs on your own infrastructure, and I put AI agents to work inside the developer platform, so self-service means asking, not ticketing.
- Private LLM HostingA platform to run, serve, and update open models on your own infrastructure, with GPU scheduling and model lifecycle handled.
- AI Agents for Self-ServiceAgents wired into the platform so developers and users provision, troubleshoot, and query by asking, instead of opening tickets.
- AI-Ready InfrastructureKubernetes foundations for inference and training. GPU nodes, autoscaling, observability, and cost control included.
Cut Cloud Costs by Up to 70%
Most platforms pay for capacity nobody uses. Idle non-prod environments, oversized nodes, forgotten workloads. The fix is automation that matches spend to real usage, and I've built it.
- Environment SchedulingNon-prod environments shut down on schedule and wake on demand, so you stop paying for compute nobody is using.
- Per-App Cost VisibilitySee exactly which application drives every part of your bill, so cost conversations happen with data instead of guesses.
- Autoscaling & RightsizingClusters sized to real load instead of peak-day guesses, adjusting automatically as demand changes.
Sovereign by Design
For organizations that can't, or won't, depend on hyperscalers. I design and build platforms where no external party holds your data, your keys, or your kill switch.
- Sovereign Cloud & PlatformOpen-source platforms on infrastructure you control, on-premises or with European providers, with nothing phoning home.
- Hyperscaler Exit & MigrationA tested path off AWS, Azure, or GCP. Microservices land on your sovereign platform without a big-bang rewrite.
- Compliance & Data ResidencyResidency, encryption, and access boundaries that hold up to regulators and auditors.
Every CNCF Certification. All 16.
That makes me a Golden Kubestronaut, a distinction held by only a small group of engineers worldwide. It's not about collecting badges. It means verified, examined depth across the whole cloud native stack, from Kubernetes internals to security, observability, and GitOps.
- Platform ArchitectureDesigns informed by the full cloud native landscape, not just the corner of it one vendor sells.
- Kubernetes MigrationApplications and infrastructure moved to Kubernetes methodically, without downtime surprises.
- Security & ComplianceHardened clusters, secured supply chains, and policies that hold up in audits, backed by CKS and KCSA.
Why Work With Me?
Plenty of consultants know Kubernetes. Here is what's different when we work together.
Hands-On Builder
I write the Kubernetes manifests, the GitOps configuration, and the pipelines myself. You get working infrastructure, not a slide deck of recommendations.
Your Team Levels Up
I work alongside your engineers and transfer knowledge as I go, so the platform keeps improving after I'm gone. Ask the people in the testimonials below.
Vendor-Neutral, Open-Source First
Independent advice with no reseller margins behind it. I recommend what fits your team and budget, and I build on open source, like kuberise.io.
Services
Three Ways We Can Work Together
Every engagement is hands-on, and every engagement ends with your team able to run the platform without me.
Platform Assessment & Roadmap
A short, focused review of your architecture, costs, security, and developer workflow. You get a prioritized roadmap you can execute with or without me.
- Platform assessment & strategy
- Cost review
- Security posture
- Architecture review
- Sovereignty & AI readiness review
Platform Design & Build
I design and build your internal developer platform on Kubernetes, with GitOps, CI/CD, observability, and security built in, then migrate your workloads onto it.
- Internal developer platform, kuberise.io or your stack
- Kubernetes implementation
- Migration from legacy or hyperscalers
- Private AI / LLM platform
- GitOps architecture
- CI/CD automation
Team Enablement & Training
Workshops, pairing, and coaching that turn your engineers into confident platform owners.
- Kubernetes & cloud native training
- DevOps ways of working
- Developer productivity
- Observability practices

Don't Take My Word for It
From platform leads to the engineers I've mentored, this is how people describe working with me.
I love to see how passionate you are about Kuberise and platform engineering. You are one of the most diligent and industrious people I have ever worked with. Also I really appreciate your presence and sense of humor in the office. Would like to keep working with you for a long time.

Mojtaba is one of a kind, unique and i believe that Xebia is build upon people like him. The Kuberise.io platform, which he founded, is a wonderful and innovative project, it deserves more attention internally and externally.

It was nice working with Mojtaba, who brings deep expertise in DevOps tooling, particularly with Kubernetes (K8s) and Terraform for infrastructure as code. His leadership and mentoring skills have been invaluable to our team. What really stands out is the structured and clear way he shares his knowledge—always ensuring the entire team grows together. Not only is he technically brilliant, but he’s also soft-spoken and approachable, making collaboration a seamless experience.

Mojtaba is a knowledgeable cloud engineer and always asking question about the why. This makes him besides a great engineer also a good architect. He is open to feedback, likes to get challenged and makes his hands dirty to deliver tailor made solutions with quality. I really liked to work with him, not only on a technical level, but also on a personal level. He is a great asset to the team.
