Linux server administrator with 20+ years keeping web infrastructure f

I build and manage the servers behind hosting platforms, WordPress/WooCommerce stores, and SaaS apps — and I migrate them between providers with near-zero downtime. I run a cloud hosting company, so server administration isn't a side skill — it's the business. You get someone who does this every day at production scale. What I do: Server setup & hardening — AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL; CSF/firewalld, Imunify360, ModSecurity, fail2ban, PCI compliance Web stack tuning — LiteSpeed / OpenLiteSpeed, Nginx, Apache; PHP-FPM, Redis, OPcache; TTFB and page-load optimization WordPress / WooCommerce / Magento performance and "why is my site slow" rescue jobs Databases — MySQL, MariaDB, Percona; replication, backups, slow-query tuning Migrations — sites, mailboxes, and whole cPanel/Plesk servers moved with minimal downtime and a rollback plan High availability — load-balanced web clusters, DNS clusters, NFS/object storage, primary-replica DB Automation — Bash and Ansible for provisioning, patching, and monitoring Monitoring & recovery — Netdata, Grafana, uptime alerting, disaster-recovery drills Control panels — cPanel/WHM, Plesk, DirectAdmin, CyberPanel Cloud & VPS — AWS, DigitalOcean, Linode/Akamai, Vultr, UpCloud, Hetzner Email — Postfix/Dovecot, deliverability, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, blacklist recovery How I work: I don't outsource. You work with me. I'd rather ask ten questions than make one wrong assumption on a production box. Full confidentiality; NDA is fine. Clear written updates pitched to whoever's reading — I spent years on helpdesk (Zendesk, Freshdesk, WHMCS) translating between engineers and site owners. I stepped back from Upwork while building my own company. I'm back for focused server and migration work alongside it. If you have a server that needs setting up, cleaning up, speeding up, or moving — let's talk.
