# Long Ho | DevOps Engineer
# Long Ho | DevSecOps & CI/CD Platform Engineer

I build CI/CD platforms, deployment automation, and reliability tooling for banking and enterprise systems.
I design and operate secure delivery platforms for regulated, production-critical systems across banking, insurance, and enterprise environments.

Currently focused on Core Banking, Open Banking, Payment Systems, OpenShift,
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Ansible, Helm, and database release automation.
My work sits at the intersection of **CI/CD platform engineering, release engineering, Kubernetes/OpenShift, DevSecOps controls, cloud infrastructure, and core banking delivery**.

## About
## Engineering Profile

DevOps Engineer based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, with 3+ years of experience in regulated financial environments.
- **4 years** across DevOps / DevSecOps roles
- Supporting an enterprise **CI/CD estate of ~400 source repositories**
- Direct contributor to **Sacombank's Temenos T24 R25 production upgrade**, the first successful T24 R25 core banking upgrade in Vietnam
- **Maintainer of the Jenkins Ansible Tower Plugin** under the Jenkins project
- Hands-on with both **container platforms** and **traditional enterprise middleware**

My work is centered around secure and auditable delivery:
## What I Engineer

- CI/CD pipeline engineering for multi-environment deployments
- OpenShift and Kubernetes deployment automation
- Reusable GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and release governance
- Helm-based application delivery for modular upgrades
- Database CI/CD with versioned migrations and rollback planning
- Security scanning integration with SonarQube, Aqua Scanner, Coverity, and BlackDuck
- Monitoring and incident visibility using Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, Zabbix, and Kibana
### CI/CD Platform Engineering
Reusable Jenkins/Groovy shared pipelines, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, release governance, artifact promotion, multi-environment delivery, and developer enablement.

## Current Focus
### Secure Software Delivery
SAST, SCA, container scanning, DAST, automated testing, approval gates, auditability, and security controls integrated directly into the release path.

- Managing CI/CD patterns across large banking application portfolios
- Automating deployment workflows for Core Banking, Open Banking, and Payment systems
- Improving release safety through approval gates, audit logs, and rollback strategies
- Building platform workflows that connect Git, Ansible, ITSM, and Microsoft Teams
### Release & Availability Engineering
Rolling, canary, and blue-green deployment patterns for container workloads, plus controlled node-by-node rollout strategies for clustered WebSphere and JBoss systems.

## Impact Highlights
### Platform & Infrastructure
Kubernetes, OpenShift, Helm, Argo CD, Ansible, Terraform, AWS, artifact repositories, observability, and enterprise application platforms.

- Contributed to Temenos T24 R25 go-live delivery in Vietnam through pipeline automation and deployment standardization
- Helped reduce a major banking upgrade window from weeks to days through repeatable CI/CD and Helm-based delivery
- Redesigned JBoss deployment topology for an AML platform to remove avoidable deployment downtime
- Built and maintained automation patterns for WebSphere, JBoss, OpenShift, WSO2 API Manager, and database deployments
- Supported production-grade reliability practices with monitoring, alerting, cleanup automation, and incident response

### Banking CI/CD Case Studies
## Compliance & Governance

Public-safe summaries of real delivery patterns I work with: branch-based release strategy, approval gates, OpenShift rollout design, database migration governance, and monitoring-driven operations.
Participated in the **2026 ISO 27001:2022 internal audit** for the DevOps/CI-CD scope, supporting reviews of pipeline controls, release governance, security processes, and audit evidence.
