I built a business by hand. Now I build systems that tell you when they break.
My first hotel, I built with my partner, just the two of us, no staff. I still finish what I promise, and I test that it holds.
Who I am
I studied at a technical university, then ran my own businesses. Now I work on infrastructure: CI/CD, backups and monitoring for web products.
I like systems that tell you when they break, and I like it when someone else can run my work without asking me how.
How I work
- Run it on a clean VM, the way a newcomer would.
- Write down what failed, then fix it.
- Add a test so it does not come back.
- Say what I did not check.
At work
CI/CD, Docker releases, backups and monitoring for web products at a small company. The code is private.

Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, fail2ban metrics. One Ansible command deploys it to one or several servers. CI smoke test. MIT.

Seven Bash scripts. Four run-tested in a clean container, ShellCheck in CI.

Next
- Terraform and Kubernetes, first on my own machine.
- My monitoring stack on AWS with free credits, with the real cost written down.
- How reliable and how expensive the LLM calls of a small service are.
