About Me
Experienced in building and maintaining Linux-based infrastructure with a focus on reliability, clarity, and security. Areas of work include system provisioning, automation with tools like Ansible, container orchestration, and secure networking practices.
Projects have included configuring monitoring and logging pipelines, writing internal documentation for repeatable deployment patterns, and hardening systems in line with security benchmarks. Emphasis is placed on clean configuration, minimal dependencies, and maintainability over time.
Comfortable working across the stack, from shell scripting and service configuration to troubleshooting containerized environments and optimizing workflows. Dedicated to continuous learning and improving how infrastructure is deployed, secured, and understood.
Strong emphasis is placed on documentation—not just as a reference, but as a tool for teaching, onboarding, and reducing long-term operational burden. Complex systems and procedures are broken down into readable, versioned, and accessible formats that support both team knowledge and future scalability.
