Hi! I’m Benjamin, a systems engineer, developer and open source enthusiast. Outside of work I am a father who loves nature, photography & mountain biking. I am currently living in Argentina.
If you want to get in touch with me you can email me or find me on Linkedin or GitHub.
Hacking #
I went to University of Gothenburg for a degree in Informatics.
I currently work as a consultant for Witted Megacorp, Norway.
I’ve been working for nearly 20 years with GNU/Linux systems, devops, SRE, networking and software development in Java. It has given me the experience to manage classic Redhat Enterprise on-prem servers with configuration management tools like Puppet, Saltstack and Ansible, to modern Cloud Native environments using Kubernetes, GitOps and IaC.
My daily life work consists of SRE work managing GNU/Linux servers and Kubernetes. Some of the daily technologies I work with today are Azure, GCP, Rancher, Akamai, F5 BIGIP, Kubernetes, Terraform, Vault, ArgoCD, Elastic, Grafana Stack, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and everything else you expect from a modern linux stack. I also enjoy trying out new technologies, learning new programming languages, and hacking things in general.
Today I do most of my hacking in Go and Python and occasionally other languages when best fitted.
Photography #
I have a passion for photography and shoot with Sony, Fuji, DJI drone, or just my phone. When I have the time I enjoy taking my camera on my shoulder for long walks in the city or nature.
Music #
I play piano on my Roland FP-30X and there is not a day I live without music, either playing or listening.
