DevOps engineer building self-hosted infrastructure, Python backends and automation on Linux, packaged to run with a single docker compose up.
💼 Open to freelance and contract work.
- Get your servers in shape: Linux hardening, nftables firewalls, Nginx/OpenResty reverse proxies, TLS (Let's Encrypt), systemd services
- Containerize and deploy: Dockerfiles, Docker Compose stacks, Swarm, Kubernetes, Jenkins and CI/CD pipelines
- Build backends and admin panels: Django + DRF, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery background jobs
- Self-host instead of renting: your own mail server, DNS/CDN/WAF edge, or virtualization control plane
- Protect and observe your traffic: WAF rules, rate limiting, brute-force bans, anti-bot/CAPTCHA, log and IP analysis
- Automate the boring parts: Python tooling, SSH-driven ops, data enrichment pipelines, FFmpeg tooling
| Project | Why it's useful | Stack |
|---|---|---|
| Open-Shield | Your own Cloudflare: authoritative DNS, caching CDN and WAF with zero-reload config | FastAPI, OpenResty/Lua, PowerDNS, Redis, PostgreSQL, Docker |
| Node-Pilot | Multi-host KVM/QEMU control plane (VMs, storage, networks, snapshots, backups) with an agent per host, RBAC and jobs | Django, DRF, Channels, Celery, libvirt, React, TypeScript |
| DevOps-ToolKit | One self-hosted cockpit for Docker, Swarm, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Git and SSH, plus a CI/CD pipeline builder | FastAPI, Docker |
| Novella-Mail | Multi-domain mail server with a webmail and admin panel, set up by a guided script | Django, docker-mailserver (Postfix, Dovecot, Rspamd) |
| Port-Warden | Host firewall desk: nftables policy with preview/apply, port inventory, SSH brute-force bans, rollback scripts | FastAPI, SQLite, nftables, Docker |
| IP-Scout | Pulls IPs from Nginx logs over SSH, enriches with WHOIS/geo and CIDR data, dashboard + REST API | Django, DRF, PostgreSQL, Celery, Redis, HTMX |
| Gate-Keeper | Layered CAPTCHA/anti-bot platform with widget, React/Vue SDKs, admin dashboard and offline mode | TypeScript, Fastify, React, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Redis |

Things I care about, as you can see in the repos: one-command deploys, safe defaults (localhost-bound panels, preview before applying, rollback scripts), and docs that explain the threat model and the tradeoffs.
