Hello there! I'm Mert ☁️ 🐧 🐳 ☸️, a recent graduate from Duzce University with a specialization in Computer Programming. My passion is deeply rooted in the DevOps domain, System & Network, and I'm actively honing my skills to excel in these areas.
👨💻 I have a robust background in cloud engineering and DevOps practices. Currently, I'm thriving as an Associate Cloud Engineer at ACEDEMAND IT Consulting Services - a Google Cloud Premier Partner. Here, I have been instrumental in designing, implementing, and optimizing cloud-based solutions for our clients. I leverage my expertise in technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Grafana, Prometheus, MongoDB, Ansible, Heroku, Chef, Puppet, Zabbix, Foreman, AWX, and Terraform to streamline deployment processes, ensure scalability, and enhance system monitoring.
Prior to this role, I kick-started my career as a Jr. DevOps Engineer at Zip Turkey, where I played a key role in managing and maintaining the company's infrastructure. I led initiatives to automate deployment pipelines, resulting in a significant reduction in deployment times and increased overall efficiency. Moreover, I collaborated closely with development teams to implement best practices for continuous integration and delivery.
During my academic journey, I was part of the Software Team in the RoboTaxi Autonomous Vehicle project at Duzce University Mekatek Community for a year, leading the team as captain for about 5 months. This experience allowed me to leverage technologies like Python, ROS, and YOLO. Inspired by the competition, I voluntarily pursued an internship in the DevOps field at an artificial intelligence company.
🔭 Currently, I'm delving into the realm of **Google Cloud x Data Analysis**, exploring the incredible potential of data-driven solutions.
🌱 Additionally, I'm committed to continuous learning, diving into various **DevOps tools and Cloud platforms** to stay at the forefront of technological advancements.
📝 Writing is another avenue of my journey. I frequently share insights and experiences on DevOps, Orchestration, and Containerization on [Medium](https://medium.com/@merttpolat).
💬 Feel free to reach out to me if you'd like to discuss anything related to DevOps, Orchestration, or Containerization.
