01 / Profile

About

Understand, strengthen, automate.

As a systems and network administrator, I have developed experience managing L3 infrastructure, with a strong focus on analysing and resolving complex incidents.

I work across systems and network environments, ensuring their availability, stability and security.

Curious and passionate about infrastructure technologies, I am progressively moving towards DevOps to complement my administration skills with automation, containerisation and improved deployment processes. My goal is to design environments that are more reliable, easier to maintain and able to grow with business needs.

I particularly enjoy understanding the root cause of a problem, finding a lasting solution and turning repetitive tasks into simpler, more efficient processes.

05 / Exploration

Home lab

An isolated environment for hands-on learning.

My home lab is built on a Hyper-V virtualised environment containing several Linux and Windows virtual machines.

It allows me to reproduce different infrastructure scenarios, test systems and network configurations, and better understand how services operate in an isolated environment.

I use it to experiment with application deployment using K8s, Docker and containers, systems monitoring, and the automation of administration tasks. This environment enables me to practise regularly, strengthen my technical skills and prepare for future certifications in systems, cloud and DevOps.
