Hi, I’m Sadegh Khademi — a Cloud & DevOps Engineer with over 10 years of experience in the IT industry, including 5 years in networking and 5+ years dedicated to automation, cloud-native infrastructure, and DevOps.
I’m originally from Iran and now based in Gothenburg, Sweden. I currently work as a Platform Engineer, where I focus on building scalable infrastructure using GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps, and modern DevOps practices. I’m passionate about designing robust, secure, and automated platforms that support high-velocity development teams.
My journey started with Cisco networking and Linux system administration, and evolved toward modern DevOps, infrastructure-as-code, observability, and cloud-native architectures.
🛠️ Tools & Technologies I Work With
Here’s a snapshot of the technologies I work with regularly:
- Cloud Providers: Google Cloud Platform (GCP), AWS, Azure
- Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Kustomize
- GitOps: FluxCD, ArgoCD
- IaC & Automation: Terraform, Ansible, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI
- Monitoring & Logging: Prometheus, Grafana, Zabbix, ELK Stack, Graylog
- Security: IAM, workload identity, CI/CD pipeline hardening
- Scripting: Bash, Python
- Others: Jenkins, Harbor, Sentry, SonarQube
NotSoStatic is my personal blog where I share what I learn, build, and reflect on — especially around DevOps, cloud infrastructure, GitOps, and sometimes the experience of working and living in Sweden.
The name NotSoStatic is a reference to two things:
- The constantly changing nature of infrastructure and knowledge
- My own desire to stay adaptable — technically and personally
I believe that sharing knowledge (even imperfectly) helps me understand it better — and might help others along the way.
You’ll find posts here on:
- Real-world GitOps and CI/CD patterns
- Kubernetes best practices
- Infrastructure design for GCP
- Philosophical reflections on complexity and systems thinking
- And practical guides from a DevOps practitioner’s point of view
It’s not just about “how-to,” but “why I did it this way.”
