What I'm looking for

I am an Infrastructure Engineer with extensive experience in Linux systems administration, cloud infrastructure, and automation. My journey in IT has been marked by a commitment to optimizing system performance and ensuring compliance in regulated environments. I thrive in complex, performance-critical settings where my problem-solving skills and hands-on approach to IT operations can shine.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles that have honed my expertise in virtualization, networking, and server management. At Daktela, I successfully managed Proxmox Cloud installations and server setups, while also utilizing tools like Ansible and Docker. My previous positions have equipped me with a strong foundation in troubleshooting and user support, allowing me to effectively communicate and collaborate with teams to achieve common goals.
