Intro

Ed Stuurman

I’m an infrastructure and reliability engineer based in Japan. Over the past decade, my work has centered on mission-critical environments where resilience isn't optional—scaling high-throughput mail delivery platforms, distributed observability, and enterprise server architectures.

This site is an extension of my homelab: a space for deep-dive technical write-ups, automating cloud infrastructure with Terraform, and architectural notes. My approach is fundamentally hands-on—understanding systems from first principles, cutting through unnecessary complexity, and building setups that hold up under real production pressure.
