Design cloud network architectures with VPC patterns, subnet strategies, zero trust principles, and hybrid connectivity. Use when planning VPC topology, implementing multi-cloud networking, or establishing secure network segmentation for cloud workloads.

Vector database implementation for AI/ML applications, semantic search, and RAG systems. Use when building chatbots, search engines, recommendation systems, or similarity-based retrieval. Covers Qdrant (primary), Pinecone, Milvus, pgvector, Chroma, embedding generation (OpenAI, Voyage, Cohere), chunking strategies, and hybrid search patterns.

Operating production Kubernetes clusters effectively with resource management, advanced scheduling, networking, storage, security hardening, and autoscaling. Use when deploying workloads to Kubernetes, configuring cluster resources, implementing security policies, or troubleshooting operational issues.

Debugging workflows for Python (pdb, debugpy), Go (delve), Rust (lldb), and Node.js, including container debugging (kubectl debug, ephemeral containers) and production-safe debugging techniques with distributed tracing and correlation IDs. Use when setting breakpoints, debugging containers/pods, remote debugging, or production debugging.

Guide incident response from detection to post-mortem using SRE principles, severity classification, on-call management, blameless culture, and communication protocols. Use when setting up incident processes, designing escalation policies, or conducting post-mortems.

Design APIs that are secure, scalable, and maintainable using RESTful, GraphQL, and event-driven patterns. Use when designing new APIs, evolving existing APIs, or establishing API standards for teams.

Data ingestion patterns for loading data from cloud storage, APIs, files, and streaming sources into databases. Use when importing CSV/JSON/Parquet files, pulling from S3/GCS buckets, consuming API feeds, or building ETL pipelines.

Apply and enforce cloud resource tagging strategies across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes for cost allocation, ownership tracking, compliance, and automation. Use when implementing cloud governance, optimizing costs, or automating infrastructure management.

When validating system performance under load, identifying bottlenecks through profiling, or optimizing application responsiveness. Covers load testing (k6, Locust), profiling (CPU, memory, I/O), and optimization strategies (caching, query optimization, Core Web Vitals). Use for capacity planning, regression detection, and establishing performance SLOs.

Write robust, portable shell scripts with proper error handling, argument parsing, and testing. Use when automating system tasks, building CI/CD scripts, or creating container entrypoints.

Writing optimized, secure, multi-stage Dockerfiles with language-specific patterns (Python, Node.js, Go, Rust), BuildKit features, and distroless images. Use when containerizing applications, optimizing existing Dockerfiles, or reducing image sizes.

Evaluate LLM systems using automated metrics, LLM-as-judge, and benchmarks. Use when testing prompt quality, validating RAG pipelines, measuring safety (hallucinations, bias), or comparing models for production deployment.
