Homelab Infrastructure
Modular infrastructure-as-code homelab environment on Proxmox using Terraform for LXC provisioning and Ansible for configuration management.
The Narrative
Architected a modular homelab environment on Proxmox leveraging Terraform to provision LXC containers and manage infrastructure state deterministically.
Configured automated, zero-downtime deployments using Ansible playbooks for services like PostgreSQL, Jenkins, MongoDB, and Plex.
Implemented centralized Terraform variables and SSH agent forwarding to ensure zero private keys are stored on the infrastructure nodes.
Deployed a Traefik reverse proxy with self-signed wildcard certificates to securely expose internal services with clean domain-based routing.

Security First
Leveraged SSH agent forwarding and strict key isolation for secure continuous deployment.
Traefik Proxy
Native reverse proxy integration handling routing and internal TLS certificate management.
