About

I am an infrastructure engineer with experience across a variety of industries and positions. I have helped improve legacy infrastructure and processes in an established industrial automation company and have also contributed to scaling a fast-moving FinTech environment. In my free time I enjoy challenging myself with best practices, but I remain pragmatic in day-to-day work, always looking for optimal solutions to real problems.

On the personal side, I am a strong team player with excellent communication skills, able to collaborate effectively with developers, other colleagues, and clients when needed. I am comfortable with on-call duties when the role requires it. I have a passion for technology and am a quick learner of new technologies and their best practices, actively seeking opportunities to expand my knowledge and apply it at work and at home (ask me about my homelab).
