Linux Server Admin & DevOps Engineering

I have spent nine years keeping production Linux servers online, fast, and secure, and I bring that experience to every project I take on. Whether you are launching a brand-new web application or trying to tame an environment that has grown messy over the years, I set up infrastructure you can rely on without thinking about it. My work starts with understanding how your application actually behaves under load, and only then do I build the server around that reality — sensible resource limits, a clean Nginx front end, and a deployment that happens the exact same way every single time.

Most of the people who come to me are simply tired of manual deploys, mystery downtime, and servers that nobody fully understands anymore. I fix that by containerizing services with Docker, wiring up CI/CD so that a git push turns into a safe release, and adding monitoring that warns you about a problem before your users ever notice it. Security is part of the baseline from day one rather than an afterthought — firewalls, fail2ban, key-only SSH, and regular scans. When I hand a server back to you, it is documented, hardened, and calm.

— Server setup: Ubuntu/Debian VPS from bare metal to production-ready
— Nginx: reverse proxy, SSL certificates, performance tuning, security headers
— Docker and Docker Compose: containerization, multi-service stacks
— CI/CD pipelines: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, automated deploy
— Security hardening: UFW, fail2ban, SSH keys, ClamAV, rootkit scans
— Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, Netdata, uptime alerts
— Database administration: MySQL/PostgreSQL tuning, backup automation
— Cron and automation: scheduled jobs, log rotation, health checks
