Production down, a hacked site, emails landing in spam, or a cloud setup that has to be done right? I'm the one engineer who handles it end to end — servers, cloud, code, DNS and security — so you don't need to hire three different people.

HOW I WORK 1. You tell me what's happening. 2. I reply in writing with what I think is causing it and a fixed price — usually the same day. 3. I fix it, document every change and send you a short report. 4. Two weeks of follow-up support included, so the fix holds. You always know the price before I start, and you can check my feedback from similar jobs on this profile. EDUCATION & CERTIFICATIONS Master's degree in Information Security · Systems Engineer. Microsoft Certified: Azure Network Engineer Associate (AZ-700) · Azure Data Engineer Associate (DP-700) · CertiProf Cyber Security Foundation (CSFPC) · Scrum Foundation (SFPC) · HPE Synergy Administration. I also built RedScanAI, my own automated security scanning tool. Send me a message with what's broken or what you need built, and I'll come back with a clear plan and price.
