About Me
I'm Anton Sätterkvist, a platform-focused DevOps engineer in the second year of a two-year DevOps program (2025 to 2027) at Chas Academy, and a firm believer in learning by doing.
These days that means running real infrastructure, not just studying it. I have passed my Kubernetes exam, hold the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, and I am building Platform Lab, a homelab Kubernetes platform with GitOps end to end (in build, kept private for now). Along the way I picked up two hackathon podium finishes (1st and 3rd place).
I am already working with Samhall AB as a DevOps developer through autumn 2026, then start my platform-engineer LIA there in November, helping build an internal developer platform on managed Kubernetes. I am also open to 2027 graduate roles in platform and cloud infrastructure.
Active in Stockholm's cloud-native and AI community: Cloud Native Stockholm, AI Engineering Stockholm, and AWS Summit Stockholm 2026. Co-organized Chas Hack 2026, the first student hackathon at Chas Academy.

second year · graduating 2027
v2.0.0 The Road Ahead planned future ▸
Deepening the platform: DORA metrics with Apache DevLake, an internal developer platform (Backstage), and my LIA at Samhall AB from November 2026.
v1.0.0 Platform Engineering — LIA at Samhall AB incoming nov 2026 – apr 2027 ▸
Joining a greenfield platform team at Samhall AB to help build an internal developer platform on managed Kubernetes, with GitOps, infrastructure as code, and full observability. Focused on the platform foundation: orchestration, delivery pipelines, and developer experience. Already on board as a DevOps developer through autumn 2026, working with the team ahead of the platform placement.
v0.9.0 Platform Lab + Kubernetes Exam current jun – nov 2026 ▸
Passed my Kubernetes exam (June 2026) and started Platform Lab: HA K3s across three bare-metal nodes, GitOps with Flux from a self-hosted GitLab, and cert-manager plus Traefik as version-pinned Helm releases. The roadmap continues through DORA metrics and an internal developer platform.
v0.5.0 DevOps & Agile Project Management mar – jun 2026 ▸
Ran two courses in parallel. DevOps: the full lifecycle from requirements and testing to packaging, deployment, monitoring, and container orchestration with Kubernetes. Agile Methods: driving projects with Scrum and CI/CD, and leading DevOps processes in agile teams. For the Chas Challenge 2026 capstone my team built Mallo, a Swedish community platform where I ran DevOps end-to-end on the school's Kubernetes cluster. I also competed in the GitLab DevSecOps Flow Hackathon with Vincent.
v0.4.0 Databases jan – feb 2026 ▸
Worked with relational databases including SQLite and MariaDB. Learned schema design, SQL queries, data modeling, and database administration. Built SSH Radar, a real-time SSH attack monitoring platform with PostgreSQL.
v0.3.0 Linux, Bash & AWS Certification nov 2025 – jan 2026 ▸
Mastered Linux administration and Bash scripting. Earned AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification. Rebuilt CarbonShift as a full-stack application with React and Python, deployed live on Digital Ocean. Organized Chas Hack, the first student hackathon at Chas Academy.
v0.2.0 Cloud, Automation & Hackathon Win oct – nov 2025 ▸
Deep dive into Python scripting for automation. Explored AWS core services and set up monitoring stacks with Grafana & Prometheus. Built my first CI/CD pipelines. Won 1st place at AWS, HiQ, and Grafana hosted hackathon with CarbonShift.
v0.1.0 Foundations & Containerization sep – oct 2025 ▸
Started the journey with Git/GitHub mastery and Linux fundamentals. Quickly moved into containerization with Docker, learning to build, ship, and run applications consistently across environments.

Workloads
Applying theory to practice. Here are some of the things I've built.
[ private — no public screenshots ]
Platform Lab
jun 2026 – ongoingHomelab Kubernetes Platform. An internal platform on three bare-metal nodes: HA K3s with embedded etcd, GitOps via Flux from a self-hosted GitLab, and cert-manager plus Traefik as version-pinned Helm releases. A sanitized public showcase repo is coming once secrets management is in place.
