English level: upper
Years of experience: 5


I am pleased that my IT knowledge has enabled me to effectively contribute toward several varied projects aimed at facilitating the smooth functioning of several IT infrastructures. Throughout these endeavors, I had an opportunity to engage with different technologies/tools towards achieving optimal system performance/security. 


Thanks to my experience in the field; deploying/configuring Linux-based servers/workstations becomes second nature to me- be it installing/configuring OSes or working towards ensuring seamless integration of network services while ensuring compatibility with hardware/software components. 
More so –I put great emphasis on proactive solutions rather than reactive ones- a trait instrumental regarding scheduled monitoring solutions geared towards identifying/rectifying issues most efficiently such as monitoring system performance logs/patching any problems that emerge alongside ensuring keeping regular maintenance activities such as disk cleanup, performance tuning, and resource optimization – I ensure these are conducted regularly. 


Keeping Linux systems secure has also been a critical component of the IT tasks/projects I have executed. To that end, measures put in place include configuring firewalls alongside implementing intrusion detection & prevention systems. User access/permissions tasks are managed through user management & role-based access control. 


Finally, my backup strategies have ensured data integrity/availability - configuring backups regularly while ensuring testing the restoration process for any glitches before developing disaster recovery plans that keep downtime/data loss to a bare minimum. Task automation is streamlined with scripting languages like Bash and Python, enabling me to automate software deployment while optimizing system administration processes with scripts for system monitoring/log analysis among other things.
