Extensive knowledge of the web stack. Develop, design and automate distributed

Debian, Ubuntu, etc.
* I use VIM and Emacs as text and code editors / IDEs, Sphinx (rst) and
PlantUML for documentation.
* Python is the language and ecosystem I have the most experience with. Rust is
lately my No.1 choice for almost all software I write and use, from low-level
queues to frontend web applications in WebAssembly, for which I also use Elm
with great joy.
* Virtualization with KVM / QEMU, libvirt and virt-manager. Experimented with
crosvm, Firecracker, Ignite and similar new technologies.
* Service / infrascructure management on AWS, OpenStack, Apache Mesos, Docker
and Kubernetes. Ansible for deployment automation.
* Fair experience (> 10 projects) with GitLab CI and Jenkins, experimented with
Travis and Circle CI. Very passionate about GitLab, since it gave the best
experience so far.
