Šimon Berka is a systems development engineer with 14 years of hands-on experience building and securing mid-size private clouds, currently at Jamf and with a long-running freelance consultancy. He specializes in cloud engineering and security—OpenStack, Kubernetes, Nomad/Vault/Consul—and regularly uses Python, C, PHP, Terraform, Ansible, Docker and GitLab to deliver infrastructure as code and robust observability stacks. His background includes operating a 300+ hypervisor research cloud, managing Nomad-based customer clusters, and automating industrial and makerspace infrastructure such as CO2 lasers and IoT/low-power sensor networks. Comfortable both in L3 support and tooling development, he pairs practical Linux/sysadmin skills with a formal master’s in information security and a preference for meritocratic team solutions. Known for self-hosting and smart-home projects, he brings curiosity and a fast-learning mindset to problems he hasn’t solved before.
