Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Perron is a seasoned Linux-focused systems engineer and founder with 13 years of hands-on experience designing, provisioning, and maintaining resilient infrastructure across datacenters and mixed OS environments. He builds pragmatic, cost-conscious solutions—moving clients to Proxmox/KVM+LXC clusters, Ceph storage, and GitLab workflows—to eliminate downtime and streamline development lifecycles. His background spans enterprise support, DevOps automation with Python and Flask, network diagnostics, and hardware troubleshooting for Linux, Mac, and Windows. Daniel pairs deep technical skills with strong communication honed as a national-level university debater, and he routinely produces user-facing documentation and training that bridges technical and non-technical stakeholders. Notably, he has repeatedly converted manual processes into automated systems (e.g., large-scale SMS campaign automation and rapid HA migrations), freeing teams to focus on growth rather than firefighting.
