Senior System Engineer

I work in infrastructure, networking and security, focusing on understanding complex systems, isolating problems and solving them in a sustainable way.

Focus Areas

• Networking (BGP, VRF, routing)
• Infrastructure (virtualization, storage, Ceph)
• Security (firewalling, analysis, hardening)

How I Work

I approach systems analytically.
Instead of treating them as untouchable black boxes, I break them mentally down into smaller components, understand how they interact, and rebuild them into stable and predictable environments.

I don’t follow tutorials blindly.
If I use a command, I understand what it does and adapt it to the problem I am solving.

Selected Experience

• Designed and implemented segmented network architectures using VRFs and centralized firewall clusters
• Built and operated infrastructure environments including virtualization, storage and high-availability systems
• Identified critical security flaws in customer software leading to architectural changes and improved security posture
• Worked closely with development teams to design and deploy production-ready environments
