Linux Administration & Automation

Recurring IT tasks?
I automate them away.

I help companies simplify and reliably automate their IT processes – so systems run stably and less manual work is needed.

Focus: Linux, Bash, Python, Ansible (Infrastructure as Code) and CI/CD pipelines.

IT automation

I automate recurring tasks and processes to save time, reduce errors and make workflows reliably repeatable.

linux

Linux administration

Administration, maintenance and optimization of Linux systems based on RHEL, Ubuntu and Debian – stable, secure and reliable.

api

API integrations

Connect REST APIs and link different systems so that data automatically arrives where it is needed.

python

Python & Bash scripts

Develop custom scripts and tools that take over routine work and extend existing processes efficiently.

security

Server hardening

Secure Linux systems, remove unnecessary services and implement proven security measures for reliable operation.

monitoring

Monitoring & logging

Set up monitoring and logging solutions so that problems are detected early and outages are avoided.

backup

Backup & recovery

Develop backup strategies and test restores so that your data stays reliably available when it matters.

performance

Performance optimization

Analyse servers, eliminate bottlenecks and optimize systems for more speed, stability and efficiency.

troubleshooting

Debugging & troubleshooting

Systematically analyse and permanently resolve complex Linux, network or deployment problems.

consulting

DevOps support

Support for existing teams on Linux, DevOps and automation projects – flexibly remote or on-site when needed.

Pricing & process

Transparent pricing – no surprises

Every collaboration starts with a free, non-binding initial assessment. You'll usually hear back within 24 hours.

from €500

Scripts & small automations

Individual Python/Bash scripts, bug fixes, API hookups or smaller Linux tasks – straightforward, without project overhead. Entry typically from around €500.

fixed price or hourly

Projects: Ansible, CI/CD & infrastructure

CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation and API integrations are quoted individually – as a fixed price or on an hourly basis, depending on the project.

€0 · non-binding

Free initial assessment

Briefly describe your problem or project – within 24 hours you'll get an honest assessment of effort, implementation and benefit.

Technologies & tools

Run and automate Linux systems reliably

A focus on robust Linux infrastructures, automation and reproducible systems. The goal is always: less manual work, fewer errors, more stability in operation.

About

Automation is my day-to-day

I work as a Linux administrator with a focus on automation, DevOps and the reliable operation of production IT systems. My focus is on reducing manual processes, avoiding sources of error and making infrastructures more efficient and stable.

I support companies in administering, optimizing and automating their Linux environments – from individual scripts with Bash and Python through Infrastructure as Code with Ansible to CI/CD pipelines, API integrations and automated deployments.

The result isn't short-term workarounds but sustainable solutions: cleanly documented, reproducible and built to keep working reliably even as requirements grow.

My focus is on operating and evolving Linux systems, automating recurring processes and improving existing infrastructures. This includes, among other things, debugging, performance optimizations, server migrations, hardening and technical modernizations.

Collaboration is mostly remote and independent of location. Where needed, on-site appointments are of course possible too.

Just describe your current problem or project. I'll assess, with no obligation, where processes can be automated, which technical improvements make sense and how your infrastructure can become more reliable in the long term.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does an automation project cost?

The cost depends on the scope and complexity. Smaller automations or scripts often start at around €500. Larger projects such as CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation or API integrations are quoted individually. Depending on the project, both a fixed price and hourly billing are possible. An initial assessment is free and non-binding.

Do you work remotely or on-site?

Collaboration is mostly remote and therefore independent of location. Where it makes sense, on-site appointments are also possible by arrangement.

Which projects is IT automation suitable for?

Anywhere recurring tasks cost time or errors can creep in – for example with deployments, backups, system administration, data processing or interfaces between systems. Even small automations often bring noticeable relief in day-to-day work.

When should I use Ansible instead of scripts?

Scripts are well suited to individual, clearly defined tasks. Ansible is the better fit when systems need to be managed reproducibly and consistently – especially with multiple servers or more complex environments. It describes the desired state of a system and reliably establishes it.

Which technologies do you use?

I work mainly with Linux (RHEL, Ubuntu, Debian), Python, Bash and Ansible. In addition, I use GitLab CI/CD, REST APIs, Git and HAProxy for automation and infrastructure projects.

How quickly will I hear back?

Usually within 24 hours. You'll get an initial assessment of whether and how your project can sensibly be implemented.

Do you take on smaller tasks too?

Yes. I'm happy to handle individual scripts, bug fixes, API hookups or smaller Linux tasks too – straightforwardly and without a lot of project overhead.

Do you support existing systems or only new projects?

Both. I support existing Linux environments just as much as new projects – from analysis through implementation and optimization.
