DevOps & Infra
Ansible roles, Docker networking, reverse proxies, secrets, monitoring, and CI/CD that ship safely.
Available for DevOps/Sysadmin/Infra roles
Automation-first DevOps / Sysadmin
I design secure, reproducible systems with Ansible, Docker, and Cloudflare. At Steelcase, I help drive an internal AI chatbot initiative. At home, I designed and built Tresor, a modular homelab powering public and private services without exposed ports.
What I do
Security by Default
Zero trust posture: Cloudflare Tunnel, no public ports, least privilege, auditing, and rate limiting.
AI Assistants
RAG chatbots that augment support teams with verified, up-to-date knowledge.
Selected projects
Tresor Homelab
Designed a modular, security-first self-hosted platform. Public apps via Cloudflare Tunnel + Traefik; internal services (Jellyfin, Portainer, Grafana) isolated on separate networks. Ansible for reproducibility.
- Dedicated Docker networks: public_net, internal_net, mc_net.
- Turnstile protection, rate limiting, no exposed ports by default.
- Everything-as-Code: users, firewall, services, and monitoring.
Service Desk AI Chatbot
RAG assistant to speed up resolutions and standardize answers. Helped align stakeholders and drive rollout; maintain content pipelines and feedback loops.
- Serialized 180+ KB articles into structured, indexable sources.
- Phased deployment plan, org-wide access strategy, and QA guardrails.
- Owns upkeep and measurement of impact on resolution times.
Spam Detection (ML)
End-to-end KDD pipeline on classic spam datasets: cleaning, feature engineering, model training and evaluation (LR, RF, GB). Produced ROC curves, confusion matrices, and practical thresholds.
- Reproducible notebooks; clear metrics and error analysis.
- Compared precision/recall trade-offs for support workflows.
- Delivered concise report and diagrams for stakeholders.
Experience
Steelcase – Service Desk (Security/Automation-oriented)
Top performer focused on upstream fixes, documentation, and automation across teams.
- Proposed and delivered multiple process improvements (phishing workflow, DL/SG automation, FIFO ticket assignment, alert management).
- Handled security incidents: investigated phishing/spam, stopped a live intrusion attempt, altered the escalation flow, contributed to updated corporate security procedures. Delivered Security Onboarding sessions for all new hires in Cluj.
- Proposed TechOps auto-incident handling to route/close noise signals.
- Initiated and now lead an AI chatbot project (RAG-based assistant surfacing ServiceNow KB in Teams). Built MVP and documentation, now coordinating iterative development.
- Daily exposure to enterprise infra: Active Directory, ServiceNow, Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps Boards, Exchange admin, SCCM/Intune, Cisco ISE, Darktrace, Fortimail.
- Participated in on-call rotation for critical incidents (monthly).
Homelab Builder – Tresor
Designed a Debian 12 homelab with Ansible, Docker, Traefik, Cloudflare Tunnel, focusing on reproducibility and security-first design.
Electronic Arts – QA
Quality assurance on game builds; built testing discipline, issue triage, and clear reporting practices used later in infra work.
- Supported 3-month release cycles for seasonal game updates.
- Performed regression, feature, black-box, A/B, and compliance testing.
- Automated repetitive item setup with batch scripts, reducing prep time from hours to minutes.
- Collaborated with distributed dev and compliance teams (Disney/EA/Bioware).
