## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to modernize and operate mission-critical Linux, Kubernetes, high-availability, networking, and cybersecurity infrastructure, with ownership of resilient production services and complex incident resolution.
```

## About

```text
I am a Senior Linux and Infrastructure Administrator with extensive experience in enterprise IT environments, systems administration, virtualization, networking, cybersecurity and automation. My background includes Linux and Windows Server administration, Active Directory, Kubernetes, OpenShift, Proxmox, VMware, Hyper-V, Azure, Microsoft 365, HAProxy, VPN technologies, SQL environments and Bash/Python automation.

I have worked on large-scale infrastructure projects, including the migration of more than 100 systems and services to Linux and Kubernetes environments, high-availability platforms, SCADA infrastructure, network and security projects, and enterprise server environments. I have hands-on experience troubleshooting complex production issues, designing resilient infrastructure, managing virtualization clusters, implementing secure remote access solutions and automating repetitive administration tasks.

Cybersecurity is also an important part of my professional background. I hold certifications including CISSP, CISM, CISA, Security+, CEH Practical, GIAC GSEC, SSCP and CASP, which complement my practical infrastructure and systems experience.

I am particularly interested in Senior Linux Administrator, Kubernetes Administrator, Infrastructure Engineer, Systems Engineer, Platform Engineer and DevOps-oriented roles. I enjoy working with Linux, Kubernetes, automation, high availability, networking, security and modern infrastructure technologies. I am currently looking primarily for fully remote opportunities where I can contribute both technically and operationally to complex IT environments.
