@michaelbillinger
I automate, secure, and maintain reliable Red Hat Linux infrastructure for scalable operations.
What I'm looking for
At Pro-Core Plus, I administer RHEL and CentOS servers across virtualized environments, automating provisioning and configuration baselines with Ansible, Terraform, Bash, and cron. I strengthen systems through SSH hardening, firewall rules, centralized Graylog logging, Nagios monitoring, and secure access controls.
I've also spent more than a decade supporting government operations where compliance, confidentiality, documentation, and audit readiness matter. That background informs how I troubleshoot complex issues, protect sensitive data, and build dependable infrastructure.
