Career Profile

Linux System Administrator/DevOps and Automation engineer who loves to Automate, Virtualize and solve complex problems. First and foremost I love Automation. Ever since my first automatization of computer installations back in the 90:s.

The last few years I have been using ansible, python , vmware, xenserver, AWS, Digital Ocean and private/hybrid cloud solutions to automate system infrastructure to solve organisational needs. I believe that most things can and should be automated to free time for the organisation to focus on operational growth/new projects.
