About
My name is Bartho, and i am one of those employees that get things done. I currently serve as both the QA Lead and DevOps Engineer at Talent Digital Art, where I’ve built and maintained critical infrastructure across numerous simultaneous projects. I have implemented CI/CD pipelines using TeamCity and Azure DevOps, and deployed scalable environments using AWS services like ECS, EC2, S3, and CloudFront. My passion for automation led me to master GitHub Actions and Jenkins independently, and I’ve designed intelligent workflows incorporating AI to optimize day-to-day operations company-wide. I live for processes and automation, even at home, where i automated my house. I am extremely passionate about the development life cycle and i am always looking for ways to improve the workflow in a CI/CD pipeline.
Devops & Automation.
