Building infrastructure
that never sleeps.

I'm a dedicated Linux System Administrator with deep hands-on experience managing web servers, optimizing infrastructure, and securing hosting environments for over 10 years. I specialize in LAMP/LEMP stack deployment, Nginx and Apache optimization, PHP-FPM tuning, reverse proxy architecture, and advanced caching strategies.

My security expertise includes identifying and removing WordPress malware, cleaning compromised servers, and implementing hardened firewall rules using UFW, iptables, Fail2Ban, ModSecurity WAF, 7G/8G firewalls, and ConfigServer Security & Firewall (CSF). My approach focuses on proactive security — preventing brute-force attacks, DDoS attempts, and server vulnerabilities before they impact business operations.

I deploy and maintain production-ready Python, Node.js, and PHP applications with proper SSL configuration, process management, performance monitoring, and Docker-based container isolation.

I've deployed and maintained platforms such as n8n automation workflows, Nextcloud collaboration systems, WordPress environments, Odoo ERP solutions, and other popular open-source web applications.
