Systems Administrator and IT Operations Analyst based in Pittsburgh, PA. I keep systems running so other people can do their jobs, in 24/7 NOC/GOC environments, through incident response, automation, and monitoring.
Most of my professional work happens behind the scenes: keeping critical infrastructure up, responding fast when it isn't, and automating the parts that shouldn't need a human at 3 a.m. The repositories here are where I do that same work on my own terms, hands-on Linux, Docker, networking, and CI/CD outside the day job.
- Operations: 24/7 NOC/GOC monitoring, incident response, on-call escalation
- Infrastructure: Linux, Docker, Unraid, Home Assistant OS, ~30 self-hosted services
- Networking: Pi-hole, Tailscale, Cloudflare, NGINX Proxy Manager
- Automation and CI/CD: GitHub Actions, n8n, container builds published to GHCR
- Cloud: Microsoft Azure (Azure AI Fundamentals certified)
Comfortable reading Python; I automate with containers, shell, and CI/CD.
Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Fundamentals — verify
- haos-apps: Third-party tools (LubeLogger, Bambuddy) packaged as native Home Assistant OS apps with ingress, persistent storage, and Supervisor integration.
- tontine-stayalive: A containerized Playwright watcher with Discord alerts and a health endpoint, auto-built and published to GHCR via GitHub Actions.
Open to Systems Administrator, IT Operations, and infrastructure roles, remote or around Pittsburgh.
