Aziz works on the delivery path: how a change gets from a commit to production without anyone holding their breath. API contracts, promotion workflows, and the traffic layer in front of them.
On Klastro he helped implement the protobuf-first backend interfaces behind the assessment and session services, with gRPC, gRPC-Gateway REST endpoints, and OpenAPI contracts, and industrialized GitOps delivery through ArgoCD and Kargo-based promotion across environments. He also manages the platform's API traffic through Kong.
His route in came through security rather than operations. At Defensy he analysed web application code with LLM APIs, mapped what he found onto the CWE framework, and applied OWASP practice to close it out. He still plays and authors CTF challenges under the handle m4dz, and mentors at Securinets.

Saydalid
Full-stack & DevOps Engineer
Migrated production services to Kubernetes with ArgoCD, absorbing three-fold traffic spikes without downtime and cutting deployment time by 70% and response time by 35% through Kong API Gateway. Built the Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki monitoring that took incident resolution time down by 60%.
