With my broad expertise, the versatile and extensive experience as a Senior BSD / Linux Systems Engineer, I move safely and reliably in various aspects of IT. Thanks to my rapidly comprehension, I find myself quickly around in complex environments.

In my professional experience in IT since 1995 I did bring a return with building and operating as well as with expansion and improvements of IT infrastructures in several industries with correspondent versatile requirements. This includes, among others things, the central internal IT infrastructure such as network, backup, virtualization, system monitoring, DHCP, DNS, NTP, PXE, file, print, intranet, application and database servers, but also the classic internet services such as web and mail servers, firewalls and VPN, as well as internet platforms with high security requirements or also with many visitors.
I realize these tasks mainly with Open Source software, and if appropriate I also add commercial products. The integration of BSD, Linux and Open Source in a mixed environments with macOS and Windows system is also one of my strengths.
My desired field of activity is in a mainly Open Source environment with BSD, Linux and macOS with a focus on infrastructure operations. In this my preferred work would be doing projects with building, optimizing and extending systems and platforms. I also like to keep the overall view and help out the operations team on tricky challenges.

My general interest in IT, which already started as hobby in 1987, goes far behind the professional responsibilities. I like to deepen and expand my knowledge auto-didactic, in order to then use this also in my daily work. I like to work independently, self-initiated, accurately, proactively and responsibly. I am helpful and appreciate the constructive exchange of experiences in the team, so as to find the most reasonable solution. I also appreciate the exchange with the software developers to define the needs and possibilities of the IT infrastructure together. High availability, the security of the systems and the needs of the users are the priorities for my activities. New challenges motivate me to broaden my horizons to advance IT operations.
