# Raghav Gupta — Manager, Platform Engineering

> I'm Raghav — I lead package and observability engineering at ResMed, working across AWS cloud infrastructure, the GitHub build platform, and developer experience for 20+ teams. I also build AI agents — a full agent factory — and run my own Proxmox homelab.

Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada (America/Halifax); at ResMed since 2021.

## Expertise
- **Cloud & Platform Engineering** — Cloud-native infrastructure on AWS that scales — from Kubernetes to Terraform modules — designed to be reliable, cost-efficient, and a pleasure to build on. _(AWS · EKS · Lambda, Terraform / IaC, Cost optimization)_
- **Build, Packaging & Release** — The build platform on GitHub: fast, reproducible pipelines, the packages and artifacts they produce, and the release flow that ships them with confidence. _(GitHub Actions, Self-hosted runners (ARC), Package management, Reusable workflows)_
- **Observability** — You can't improve what you can't measure. I lead the observability function — metrics, logs, traces, and alerts that give teams real visibility and cut MTTR. _(Datadog migration, SLIs / SLOs, OpenTelemetry)_
- **AI Agents & Agent Factory** — I build AI agents and the factory that produces them — agents that plan, code, review, and ship behind the same CI gates as people, wired to tools through MCP. _(AI agent factory, Multi-agent workflows, MCP servers & tools, LLM apps & RAG)_
- **Homelab & Self-hosting** — A Proxmox homelab I run myself — the proving ground where new infrastructure, runners, and agents get built and broken before they reach anything that matters. _(Proxmox VE, Virtualization, Self-hosted services)_
- **Leadership & Collaboration** — Technology is a team sport. I lead the package and observability function, mentor engineers, and align platform decisions with the goals of the business. _(Team leadership, Stakeholder mgmt, Mentorship & hiring)_
