Panos Xynos, SRE

I am an SRE focused on AI-Augmented Infrastructure. Twenty-six years, from mainframes to agentic AI, from COBOL to Rust.

I have spent my career making fragile systems reliable. Not just running platforms, but teaching them to fix themselves. Real open-source contributions across Cloud Foundry, BOSH vendor packages and releases. A publicly demonstrated development methodology — TDD with LSP as the guardrail, trace tags for auditability — developed with my young Padawan OrsonRius and documented in the Philosophical Developer series.

I am a polyglot engineer by nature, not by resume padding. From COBOL to Go to Rust to Python. From mainframes to Cloud Foundry to Kubernetes to what comes next.

I am the founder of OnlyASCII Ltd, a platform engineering consultancy. The company site at onlyascii.io has the services page, the work history, and ways to get in touch.
