My experience covers working with complex Payment Platform systems and troubleshooting Windows, MacOS and Linux operating systems. Additionally, in my previous positions, I gained extensive knowledge of Microsoft 365, including Active Directory and Intune. I also ascertained a wide set of skills in DevOps concepts such as containerization (Docker), automation platforms such as Ansible/Terraform and Kubernetes.
