I diagnose from
operating, not theory.

Email deliverability and infrastructure engineer.
High-volume sending is my daily work — so I know what reputation and recovery actually take.

About

An operator who
also builds

I run high-volume email sending every day — dozens of domains, multi-IP rotation, reputation and bounce management at scale. That operating experience is what I bring to deliverability work.

I also build the systems underneath: self-hosted mail infrastructure as reproducible code (IaC), observable with monitoring, logs, and alerts, plus data pipelines, automation, and web.

Korea-based, EU GDPR adequacy compliant, B2B only. One-time audit and recovery, or an ongoing deliverability partner.

Things I’ve built and run

Real projects from operating my own high-volume sending.

Work 01

High-volume sending operations

Dozens of sending domains with multi-IP rotation, ISP-specific rate limiting (Gmail, Naver, etc.), automated bounce & complaint suppression, and reputation-based send control (AIMD) with warm-up.

Work 02

Email authentication & DMARC

SPF (10-lookup safe), DKIM, and a DMARC path to p=reject. DMARC report aggregation (parsedmarc) to discover every sending source, with subdomain separation for marketing / sales / transactional.

Work 03

Mail infrastructure automation

Full mail stack (SMTP, spam filtering, sending, monitoring, bounce, security) built and deployed as 17 Ansible modules — bounce-collection daemon, audit logging, and blacklist monitoring automated.

Work 04

Large-scale email data processing

Extract and de-duplicate emails from CSV / XLSX and classify providers via MX records. Async DNS (200 workers) with SQLite caching batch-processes 100K+ records.
