01. About
Dedicated IT professional experienced in system administration, DevOps, and network management. Proficient in server setup, troubleshooting, and user management — familiar with DevOps methodologies and network performance optimization.
My day-to-day spans Linux server administration (Red Hat, CentOS), virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox), storage (HPE), and the automation that ties on-premises infrastructure to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. I also design and implement security controls — intrusion detection, SIEM, backup and replication — to keep systems resilient.
