My Obsidian PKM Setup: Karpathy's LLM Wiki + Claude Code + Local Search

About Me
Hi, I’m a DevSecOps Engineer who thrives at the intersection of development, security, and operations. My journey started as a Full Stack Developer, but I quickly found my calling in the infrastructure side of things, transitioning to a DevOps/Cloud Engineer role within my first year. That shift opened the door to the world of CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, and cloud-native technologies, and I never looked back. Today, I focus on building secure, automated, and reproducible infrastructure. I’m a firm believer in Open Source and actively contribute to the community that shaped my career.
