What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a DevOps/Kubernetes role where I can own Linux infrastructure, build production-grade CI/CD, and automate self-hosted platforms—focusing on reliability, security, monitoring, and practical delivery end to end.

I’m a DevOps-focused engineer with 7+ years of experience in Linux systems, infrastructure automation, and CI/CD workflows across embedded and self-hosted environments. I’m a Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) with hands-on experience building Kubernetes clusters, containerized applications, and production-style infrastructure platforms, backed by a strong networking foundation (CCNA).

In my recent freelance work, I deploy and maintain self-hosted services, handle SSL/TLS, backups, and reverse proxy setups, and deliver remote support across Linux and Windows. I also built and maintained CI/CD pipelines (including as the sole maintainer for GitLab firmware pipelines), designed multi-destination backup workflows using 3-2-1 principles, and recovered production data after a RAID0 failure with zero loss. I continue to grow with production-grade home infrastructure on Proxmox and Kubernetes (k3s), including secure remote access, monitoring, and end-to-end CI/CD automation.
