Muhammad A.
DevOps & Linux Engineer | AWS, Docker, CI/CD, cPanel Hosting & Email
I run Linux servers and AWS infrastructure for small teams and agencies: CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Docker, Terraform, cPanel/WHM hosting, migrations and email deliverability. Server fixes, migrations and deploy pipelines are the three things clients call me for most. Top Rated, 4+ years, and I usually reply within a few hours. DevOps & Cloud - AWS (EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront, IAM) and GCP - Terraform for reproducible infrastructure, existing resources imported, not rebuilt - GitHub Actions CI/CD with Docker: push to main, deploy with no hands on the server - Docker platforms in production (30+ services across 10-15 servers) - VPS setup on Hetzner, Linode, Contabo, DigitalOcean - AI automation hosting (OpenClaw, n8n) on self-hosted VPS Hosting & Server Management - cPanel/WHM administration - Server setup, hardening, and performance tuning - NGINX / Apache / LiteSpeed configuration and caching - Website and hosting migrations with zero downtime Email Deliverability & DNS - SPF, DKIM, DMARC setup and troubleshooting - Domain authentication for SendGrid, Brevo, Mailchimp and similar platforms - DNS management on Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Route53 - Fixing mail that lands in spam or fails authentication A few results: - Took a team off manual SSH deploys: a push to main now builds and deploys the site - Hardened a server from 36 to 153 passing checks on a HIPAA security scan, published on GitHub - Cut TTFB on a high-traffic WHMCS site from ~4s to 54ms - Moved 11,700 users onto a new host with zero data loss - Raised Google PageSpeed from 45 to 90+ across 20+ WordPress sites - Recovered and rebuilt a Magento store after full data loss How I work: I tell you exactly what I'll change before I touch anything, I don't break what's already working, and I document the handover so you can run it yourself. If you need a reliable hand for your servers, deployments, or email setup, send me a message.
