I'm the person you call when something breaks in ways nobody else can read, or when you need infrastructure where neither the stack nor its workloads phone home.

Currently building: a lean, local PII anonymization pipeline; three-stage architecture, on-prem, no hosted AI, designed to replace the kind of Presidio-based solution that OOM-crashes AWS instances. Bleed handling between stages in progress. Before that: Backend dev / Infrastructure architect building an AI assistant for the financial advisors industry. Before that, as an infrastructure lead at a blockchain company, built algoexplorer.io and MyAlgo Wallet infra from scratch. Current focus: on-prem AI inference for organizations where the data can't leave the building; healthcare, legal, finance, government.

24 years of production Linux. I don't babysit pipelines; I fix what others can't see.

Experienced Linux Systems Administrator and Infrastructure Engineer with a strong background in troubleshooting, performance optimization, and system resilience.

For 20+ years, I've worked with *NIX environments, handling everything from kernel tuning and networking to storage, security, and automation. I thrive in high-pressure situations where deep technical expertise is required, breaking down complex problems and implementing effective solutions.

Looking for remote opportunities where I can apply my expertise in infrastructure, automation, and problem-solving to help teams build reliable, high-performance systems.
