What I'm looking for

I'm continuing to develop my skills in infrastructure automation and DevOps practices, building on my experience managing infrastructure and automating configuration.

At Asl Al-Uroba, I manage daily operations across two Proxmox clusters: one hyperconverged with integrated Ceph storage and another backed by external Ceph storage. I also administer VMware vSphere, including ESXi hosts and vCenter Server.

I automate Linux system and VM configuration with Ansible, including standardizing root and administrator access to match each environment's requirements. I use Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki for monitoring, centralized logging, and troubleshooting.

At SMART OASIS, I managed Windows Server infrastructure and deployed WDS/MDT imaging and centralized WSUS patching. I also rebuilt the Active Directory structure with company-wide Group Policy implementation and implemented Synology NAS backups for vCenter and Microsoft 365.

My earlier work at SMART OASIS included engineering control systems and supporting network operations. I hold RHCE, RHCSA, and CCNA certifications, and I'm continuing to develop my skills in infrastructure automation and DevOps practices.
