Youssef Omar Bouden

DevOps engineer in Tunis, Tunisia. I build cloud and GPU infrastructure for AI/ML teams and automate the operations around it.

About

  • Platform engineering across AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack and VMware, with Terraform as the common thread and Argo CD for delivery.
  • GPU infrastructure for AI/ML on NVIDIA and AMD: GPU-enabled Kubernetes nodes, driver and operator lifecycle, utilisation monitoring with DCGM.
  • Current focus: cloud cost engineering (FinOps), migration automation, and shifting security left in CI/CD with Trivy, SonarQube and Infisical.
  • Upstream, most of my work goes into llm-d, Kubernetes-native distributed inference, alongside fixes across the Kubernetes and cloud provider ecosystem.
