DevOps: Building Self-Healing and Autonomous Infrastructure

​Ifebuche Omeke is a Senior DevOps Engineer and Founder of Nimbus Compute, a UK-based DevOps and cloud consultancy partnered with Xygeni, a global leader in software supply chain security. With a background in Computer Science and a Master’s in Digital Marketing from the UK, Ifebuche blends technical engineering with strategic business insight making him as comfortable discussing Kubernetes deployments as he is shaping go-to-market strategies.

​He began his career as a website developer before moving into DevOps in Dubai, where he built his foundation in infrastructure automation, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud operations. Since then, he has delivered production-grade projects ranging from AI-powered ChatOps platforms and cloud-native banking applications to enterprise monitoring and observability systems. His pipelines don’t just push code they safeguard reliability, prevent failure, and recover systems before stakeholders even notice.

​At Nimbus Compute, Ifebuche drives transformation by combining deep technical rigor with strategic partnerships. Working with Xygeni, he helps organizations modernize legacy estates, secure their software supply chains, and embed AI into their DevSecOps pipelines to accelerate delivery without sacrificing security.

​Beyond consultancy, Ifebuche is a mentor and community builder. He has personally trained and mentored junior engineers many of whom now work as DevOps professionals and leads an active community of 100+ engineers, running hands-on workshops and project-based training programs. His teaching philosophy is simple: forget theory for theory’s sake; build systems that work in production, and let results speak louder than certificates.

​Direct, uncompromising, and results-driven, Ifebuche’s mission is clear: stop excuses, automate the boring, and build infrastructure that survives reality. If you’re looking for empty buzzwords, you’ll be disappointed. If you want blunt truth, production-grade systems, and the future of AI-driven DevOps, bring coffee and listen closely.

By the end of the talk, attendees will understand how to:
1. Move from reactive operations to proactive systems
2. Embed intelligence into infrastructure
3. Build pipelines and platforms that survive reality, not just theory
