Bank AL Habib DigiMate

Challenge
Reliable infrastructure and repeatable delivery for a customer-facing AI assistant.
My work
Designed and deployed AKS, VMs, App Service, MongoDB clusters, Redis, Log Analytics, and private networking. Set up RAG and Microsoft Foundry model configuration, and worked with Ollama.
Outcome
DigiMate is live. Isolated the banking and chatbot backends and configured HTTPS/TLS.

TekRevol

Challenge
Manual delivery across mobile, web, and backend workloads made releases harder to repeat.
My work
Provisioned client AWS infrastructure with Terraform. Automated website releases through Jenkins, S3, and Ansible on EC2; scripted SonarQube and Trivy checks to block staging deployments when vulnerabilities were flagged.
Outcome
Replaced manual website deployments with an automated release workflow. Automated nightly MongoDB/PostgreSQL backups to S3 and validated database restores.

Independent product · App & website · Personal finance

OneView

The app, the website, and the launch—built and managed by me.

Challenge
Investment records spread across statements and asset types make it difficult to see the whole portfolio.
My work
Built the app and product website, purchased the domain and hosting, and managed DNS, SSL, deployment, and launch. The Android tracker includes on-device statement import, performance tracking, and private local storage.
Outcome
OneView brings stocks, mutual funds, and pension investments together in one view, with biometric protection, backup, and restore.
  • Complete product ownership: app, website, domain, hosting, DNS, and SSL
  • On-device PDF, CSV, TXT, and scanned-statement import
  • Portfolio performance, allocation, dividends, and activity
  • Private local storage, biometric lock, backup, and restore

SERVICES

What I can offer.

Cloud and DevOps are my core focus. I also build full-stack websites and KMP apps, and handle domains, DNS, hosting, and SSL—whether you need one part or the whole journey from scratch to launch.

01

Cloud & Kubernetes setup

Design and configure cloud environments, container platforms, networking, and access controls. Get a deployment-ready foundation with clear documentation.

02

CI/CD & release automation

Build delivery pipelines with automated checks, deployments, and rollback steps. Make releases repeatable and easier to operate.

03

Infrastructure as code

Turn manual setup into reusable Terraform and Ansible configurations. Keep environments consistent and infrastructure changes easy to review.

04

Monitoring & production support

Set up logs, dashboards, and alerts, and troubleshoot production issues. Spot problems sooner with practical runbooks for day-to-day operations.

05

Full-stack website development

Build a complete website with its frontend, backend, and database. Connect the pieces, deploy the application, and take it from an idea to a live product.

06

Kotlin Multiplatform apps

Build apps with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), including shared application logic and backend integration. Handle development, release preparation, and the infrastructure behind the app.

07

Domains, DNS & SSL

Help with domain purchase and configuration, DNS records, and SSL certificates. Work with any domain registrar or hosting provider—including Namecheap, GoDaddy, and Hostinger—to connect your domain and enable HTTPS.

08

Hosting & launch

Choose and configure hosting with any provider, connect your website or app, and verify the live setup. Get help with a fresh launch, a hosting migration, or ongoing maintenance.

AI & LLM infrastructure.

AI applications need reliable platforms, secure access, monitoring, and cost control. I build and operate the infrastructure that keeps chatbots and model-serving workloads running.

Select a node to explore its role in the platform.

Illustrative architecture. Ollama or Microsoft Foundry can provide model services; this is not DigiMate’s internal architecture.

AI chatbots & LLM apps

Deploy and operate AI assistants with Kubernetes, automated releases, and practical scaling.

Model-serving platforms

Plan self-hosted model workloads with Ollama or cloud AI services with Microsoft Foundry, including resource and GPU requirements.

Retrieval & data infrastructure

Set up the infrastructure for retrieval pipelines, application data, and securely managed context.

Monitoring & cost control

Track application health, latency, resource usage, and spending with actionable dashboards and alerts.

Security & reliable operations

Configure access controls, secrets, networking, and logs for production AI workloads.

PRODUCTION EXPERIENCE

I designed and deployed the infrastructure for AL Habib DigiMate, the bank’s live AI chatbot: Azure AKS, VMs, App Service, MongoDB, Redis, logging, and private networking. My work also included RAG setup and model configuration in Microsoft Foundry, with Ollama experience on the project.

CONSULTING & REVIEWS

A clear plan before the next infrastructure change.

Bring an existing stack, a recurring production problem, or a new platform idea. I help you decide what to change, why it matters, and how to deliver it.

01

Architecture & cloud choices

Review major cloud providers—including AWS, Azure, GCP, and DigitalOcean—against your workloads, team, and budget. Get practical recommendations for networking, access, and deployment.

02

Kubernetes readiness

Assess whether Kubernetes fits your needs, or review an existing cluster for resource use, availability, storage, and operational complexity.

03

Cost & reliability review

Identify resource waste, bottlenecks, and single points of failure. Prioritize improvements to performance, recovery, and production stability.

04

Release & security review

Review manual deployment steps, quality checks, rollback paths, and access controls. Get a plan for repeatable delivery with fewer operational risks.
