Now

What I am working on right now.

A snapshot of what is currently being built, explored, learned and tested. Updated manually when the state changes.

Building

  • A public knowledge surface for iamalanabreu.com — this site.
  • A grounded retrieval experiment over runbooks and incident notes.

Exploring

  • How small language models can answer operational questions with high citation accuracy.
  • The trade-offs between platform consolidation and team autonomy.

Learning

  • Advanced OpenTelemetry instrumentation patterns for asynchronous services.
  • Policy testing workflows that make Rego policies maintainable at scale.

Experiments

  • Homelab GitOps control plane rebuilt from an empty hypervisor.
  • Static search index generated at build time for a content-first site.
