Looking for (dev)ops contract work in London

[Jerry Steele]

Hello,

I'm looking for systems/devops type work in London. I've got 10+ years experience and over 15 years experience in more general IT-related work. Please see my Linkedin profile for a more detailed overview of my skills.

I'd say I'm more "ops" than "dev", but am highly aware of the benefits of automation and configuration management can have in terms of getting things done in this field.

Key skills:
  - Configuration management:
    - Puppet design & deployment
    - Ansible
  - LAMP/LEMP stacks
  - Automation using bash scripting
  - Monitoring - Nagios, Icinga, Shinken, Ganglia
  - Good understanding of networking/routing

Key achievments:
  - Implementation of Nagios/Ganglia monitoring system
  - Design and deployment of puppet configuration based around gitlab

I also like to think I have good communication/people skills, though I understand that's very subjective :)

I'm based in Worthing, on the south coast, but I'm willing to endure the commute for the right job. In terms of availability, I'm currently in a permanent position, for which I have to give a month's notice so if anyone has anything coming up, please feel free to get in touch. Full CV available on request.

Thanks

Jerry Steele
