What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote systems administration, cloud engineering, or cybersecurity work where I can secure hybrid infrastructure, automate deployments and maintenance, and collaborate on DevOps practices that improve reliability and reduce operational risk.

I’m a results-driven IT Systems Administrator with hands-on hybrid cloud experience spanning Active Directory, Linux/Windows server administration, and DevOps pipelines. I bring a security-first mindset, applying enterprise-grade automation to improve uptime, reduce server dependency, and enforce security policy compliance.

In remote roles and freelance work, I’ve deployed Ubuntu/CentOS on AWS EC2, built Proxmox-based virtualization with Windows Server and AD services, and implemented CI/CD using Jenkins integrated with Maven. I also set up continuous code quality and performance monitoring (SonarQube and New Relic), and I streamline operations by scripting routine maintenance in Bash and Python.
