What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Senior Infrastructure Engineer with extensive experience in managing and automating complex Linux/*NIX infrastructures and cloud services.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led migrations of services from virtual machines to Kubernetes, developed frameworks for deploying Dockerized applications, and enhanced automation through Jenkins and GitHub Actions. My role as an Interim Engineering Manager allowed me to lead a team using Agile Scrum methodology, significantly improving process efficiency. I have a proven track record of reducing costs and improving scalability through strategic migrations and optimizations.
With a Master’s degree in Physics and Information Science, I combine technical expertise with analytical skills to solve complex problems. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to drive innovation and efficiency in IT infrastructures.
