About me

My name is Tom and I've been working in the IT industry for more than 10 years. Currently I work as DevOps engineer and a team lead.

This site is my professional journal, a simple place primarily for my CV, but also a place where I occasionally write other "stuff to remember" for later use.

My main areas of expertise are AWS Cloud, Linux, Networking and Virtualization technologies. I'm also very fond of Containers, Kubernetes and CI/CD operations.
