Built by an SRE who does this
every single day.

Smart Infra Ops is not a startup guessing at infrastructure. It is a professional services business founded by a working Site Reliability Engineer who builds, monitors, and scales production systems for a living.

Muhammad Faisal Siddiqui

Founder & Principal SRE

Faisal is a senior SRE professional based in Melton South, Victoria, Australia. He works full-time in Site Reliability Engineering and runs Smart Infra Ops to bring enterprise-grade infrastructure to small and mid-sized businesses at a price they can actually afford.

His expertise spans the full infrastructure stack: from bare-metal Proxmox clusters and Kubernetes orchestration to Cloudflare Zero Trust networking, full observability with Prometheus/Grafana/Loki, and Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and Terragrunt.
