About Me
DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure Engineer — Healthcare Specialist
Hi, I’m Yating Chatiron, a Senior DevOps Engineer with 15+ years of experience in full-stack engineering and cloud infrastructure. Since 2022, I’ve specialized in DevOps and cloud architecture for the healthcare sector — an environment where criticality, compliance, and service continuity leave absolutely no room for error.
What I Do Today
Infrastructure as Code | Kubernetes & GitOps | Multi-Cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure)
I design and operate highly available cloud infrastructures for complex healthcare platforms. At Biogroup, I orchestrated a multi-tenant Kubernetes infrastructure supporting 28+ laboratories (20M+ patients) with:
- ✅ Zero-downtime deployments (Blue/Green, GitOps via ArgoCD)
- ✅ Shift-left security (Prisma Cloud, Trivy, SBOM scanning)
- ✅ Critical observability (Grafana, RabbitMQ alerting N1/N2/N3)
- ✅ HDS/ISO27001 compliance throughout the deployment lifecycle
Core stack: Kubernetes · Terraform · Helm · ArgoCD · GitHub Actions · Vault · PostgreSQL · Go/Node.js/Python
Why Healthcare?
In 2023, I discovered that healthcare isn’t "just" tech.
Every deployment directly affects doctors, patients, and medical decisions. An incident means a rescheduled surgery or a delayed diagnosis. That responsibility fascinated me — and changed me.
- • 5+ years of e-health experience (Biogroup, ITEKCOM, Livemed’s)
- • Deep understanding of the domain (HDS, GDPR, sensitive data, critical SLAs)
- • Expertise in cross-functional coordination between dev, infra, data, and clinical teams
An Atypical Journey (But a Logical One)
🇹🇼 Taiwan → Graphic Design
🇺🇸 Boston (5 years) → Full-Stack Engineer (creativity → automation → code)
🇫🇷 France (since 2021) → DevOps + Healthcare Infrastructure
Across these three worlds, I’ve built:
- • Extreme adaptability (startups, scale-ups, heavy regulation)
- • Multilingualism (Native Chinese · English · French · Japanese N1)
- • Cross-cultural engineering mindset (no single "right way" of doing things)
What truly shifted: realizing that the real complexity isn’t the code — it’s the human stakes, business constraints, and trust. Everything else is details.
Currently Building
Cybersecurity (Certifications: AWS CLF, NRS6092 Pentesting, ISC2)
Security isn’t an "add-on" to infrastructure — it’s the foundation. That’s what drives my growing interest in pentesting and threat modeling.
What I’m Looking For
- Own the infrastructure (not just deploy)
- Mentor junior DevOps/SRE engineers
- Work on what matters (healthcare, fintech, critical data)
- Keep learning (data platforms, advanced observability)
I believe in: simple infra, boring code, strong culture, technical humility.
Experience
Tech Lead & DevOps Engineer – Fortil
October 2025 – Present
- Technical lead across dev, infra, and ops teams on a multi-application health platform (28+ sites); drove architecture decisions on GitOps strategy, secrets management, and deployment pipelines.
- Built a full GitOps CI/CD chain (GitHub Actions, Helm, ArgoCD, Vault, Harbor), replacing manual deployments and integrating shift-left security scanners (Prisma, Trivy, CVE).
- Debugged RabbitMQ deadlocks on a multi-component stack (Node-RED + Workers + Go connector); refactored the Go connector with a replay and business-comparison system over ~1M rows.
- Reduced Kubernetes Job migration time from several hours to under 10 minutes; refactored cron jobs across 5 microservices (TypeScript/Next.js), cutting processing time from 8h to 1h.
- Deployed Grafana/RabbitMQ dashboards and N1/N2/N3 alerting across 28+ sites, replacing PRTG with a more flexible open-source solution.
- Established coding standards, code review processes, and Blue/Green deployment with instant rollback and automated backups.
