Network and backend engineer skilled in Linux, networking, and microservices troubleshooting.
What I'm looking for
I am a network and backend engineering professional with hands-on experience in Linux systems, networking fundamentals, and microservices troubleshooting. I configure and manage Cisco switches, FortiGate firewalls, and web servers (Nginx, Windows IIS) to maintain secure, highly available infrastructure.
I monitor systems and services using Grafana, Kibana, Nagios, and Zabbix, and diagnose connectivity and performance issues across hybrid Linux/Windows environments. I have practical knowledge of TCP/IP, VLANs, OSPF, IPv4/IPv6, Active Directory, and relational databases (PostgreSQL/MySQL).
My projects include network-focused tools and full-stack systems: a Java pcap wrapper for packet capture, enterprise network simulations, microservices-based applications, streaming and blockchain projects, and automation/scraping tools. These highlight my ability to debug at both network and application layers.
I am eager to contribute to production systems with a structured, analytical approach, support secure and resilient networks, and continue learning modern infrastructure and backend practices to deliver reliable, maintainable solutions.
