Joel EKOU

I am a Senior Systems & Cloud Engineer with strong hands-on experience in Linux, Kubernetes, virtualization, and private cloud infrastructures.

I specialize in designing, deploying, securing, and troubleshooting production environments, both on-premise and hybrid cloud. I don’t just “run commands” — I understand architectures, risks, and real operational constraints.

What I do best:

Linux server administration (RHEL, Rocky, CentOS)

Kubernetes deployment, troubleshooting, and optimization

Cloud & virtualization platforms (OpenStack, VMware, Nutanix)

Infrastructure security & hardening (CIS benchmarks, SSH, PAM, sudo)

High Availability, Backup & Disaster Recovery design

Root-cause analysis and complex incident resolution

What clients get when working with me:

Clear technical explanations (no jargon overload)

Production-ready solutions, not lab experiments

Security-aware and performance-oriented setups

Reliable delivery and honest communication

I have worked on critical infrastructures where stability, security, and availability are non-negotiable. I am comfortable working independently or as part of a distributed team.

If you are looking for a serious, experienced engineer who can solve real problems and improve your infrastructure, let’s talk.
