Orchestration and automation

I automate releases, configuration and infrastructure with Jenkins, Ansible, Terraform and GitOps, so releasing becomes a repeatable procedure.

Let's talk

Who it is for

Teams with manual releases, hand-configured servers or Jenkins pipelines that are hard to maintain.

Where

Pavia and Lombardy on site by appointment, across Italy and Europe remotely.

How it starts

A call, then a written proposal with scope, timing and cost.

Problems I solve

• Fragile pipelines: outdated plugins and jobs defined by hand. Jenkins LTS 2.580 requires Java 21 or 25.
• Snowflake servers: configurations nobody can reproduce. Ansible makes them repeatable and testable.
• Environments that differ between development and production: infrastructure as code and ephemeral environments.

What you get

• Pipelines as code (Jenkinsfile, GitHub Actions or GitLab CI)
• Tested Ansible playbooks and roles
• Terraform/OpenTofu modules and a GitOps flow

In practice

I turn manual steps into repeatable processes: release pipelines (Jenkins and others), configuration with Ansible, infrastructure as code, GitOps, identical environments from development to production. The goal is to make releasing boring.

• CI/CD pipelines and release strategies
• Jenkins, GitHub Actions and GitLab CI; Terraform/OpenTofu; GitOps (Argo CD, Flux)
• Ansible playbooks and roles for servers, network and applications
• Ephemeral environments and internal developer platforms
• Cloud costs under control

Technologies

• Jenkins LTS 2.580
• ansible-core 2.19-2.21
• Terraform
• OpenTofu
• Argo CD
• GitHub Actions
• GitLab CI

How I work

1. Listening A call to understand the context, the problem and the constraints. No commitment.
2. Proposal Scope, timing and cost written clearly, before anything starts.
3. Delivery Small shippable steps, regular updates and code in your own repository.
4. Handover Documentation and training: the work ends when your team can run it alone.
