hey chooms, it's time for an #introduction post!  

i'm fluted. by day, i'm a chef in the corpo world and travel between countries a fair bit and by night, i dive into norwegian learning, gaming, code, small electronics, and building tools to smooth out the edges of daily life.

if it can be done in a terminal, count me in. i love writing scripts and automations to save time... even if they take way longer to make than just doing the thing manually.

expect website experiments, home automation, and the occasional "not needed but made anyway" bash utility.

i'm always up for learning anything computer related but mostly just excited to jack in and see what everyone's building and doing

Zack:
Rausschmiss.
Hausverbot.
Ermittlungsverfahren.

Wacken stabil.

grumpy effective sysadmin available immediately

having my position finally axed liquidated, i'm currently looking for a new position.

i am looking for a senior position, preferably remote work, full employment. i can be the literally senior person in your very own team!

availability date negotiatable starting from 1st of july 2025 – i'm currently located in poland, and for various reasons am not planning to relocate.

current cv available on request (private message will do, with all caveats regarding its privacy, or you can e-mail me on miroslaw AT makabra dot org)

i'm a generalist linux wrangler, with a long (20+ years) and wide (if a bit eclectic) experience –

• system management, configuration management (ansible, chef & co.),

• glue tooling and scripting (bash, python, rudimentary ruby),

• design, setup and management of crucial infrastructure services (ldap, dns),

• general db skills (not at the dba level), devops-y stuff etc.,

• sysadmin-level networking stuff, and the ability to not stepping on toes of the netadmins too frequently,

• very tired familiarity with version control systems (from using to setting up and managing, including ancient and current ones, open source and commercial),

• also with long experience working in multi time-zone environment.

i know cloud stuff (mostly aws), spent some time recently working with the budget infra providers like hetzner or ovh, can do proxmox, have some docker and currently working on getting fluency in kubernetes – i'm already doing plenty of yaml programming.

in my recent job i've managed the most part of our ansible collection designed to set up base system image and then then getting specific services up and running, and have written tooling to help with bringing up and updating the systems using it, including a safe secret management on a small team scale.

i have fluent english and polish, passive german, some russian.

considering the current political and economical situation and that i'm looking for a long-term employment contract, i'd prefer not working for an united-states funded company, and preferably not having much to do with statistical slop generators of any kind (including, but not limited to LLMs).

it would be nice if the company had a minimally acceptable general business ethics profile.
