Infrastructure engineer and team lead — 25 years of keeping production Linux, Windows, and hybrid-cloud environments fast, boring, and online. RHEL ecosystem at the core (Satellite, Ansible Automation Platform), Kubernetes on top, Prometheus/Grafana/Loki keeping honest score.
Day to day: RHEL · Ansible / AAP · Kubernetes · Terraform · VMware vSphere · Azure & Microsoft 365 hybrid identity · Prometheus · Grafana · Loki · Zabbix · Python · Bash
Things I've fixed or built that were merged into projects I rely on:
Ansible ecosystem
- ansible-collections/community.zabbix —
zabbix_agent2_pluginssupport for extra plugin packages · fix: Windows install hang with spaces in MSI properties · ZBX-21948 - hornjo/sonicos — new configuration-backup module for SonicWall firewalls, plus digest-auth and API fixes
Kubernetes & Helm
- vsphere-tmm/helm-charts — vSphere CSI: snapshot-controller dependency updates
- truenas/charts — added the netboot.xyz app and several follow-up fixes
- mkilchhofer/unifi-chart — Renovate versioning fix
Containers & self-hosting
- netbox-community/netbox-docker — support for the new DATABASES syntax in NetBox 4.3
- netbootxyz/docker-netbootxyz — configurable web-app and nginx ports
- jacobalberty/unifi-docker — saner certificate-chain handling
Observability & automation glue
- xente/loki-logger-handler — optional TLS verification skip for internal endpoints
- zabbix-tooling/zabbix-ldap-sync — user cleanup when no all-users group is configured
- snowdrop/godaddy-webhook — cert-manager webhook argument-handling fix
- framework-fedora-bootc — image-based Fedora (bootc) builds for Framework laptops: layered Containerfiles, GitHub Actions CI, Renovate automation, and versioned release branches.
Full homelab, run like production: Proxmox (LXC) · TrueNAS (Docker) · OPNsense · UniFi · Home Assistant · Caddy — with Prometheus/Grafana/Loki watching all of it, naturally.
