About Me.

◆ System Admin & Tier 2 Technical Support Engineer · Mangalore, IN

I am an operations-focused systems administrator and support engineer with a strong background in server management, virtualization, and troubleshooting. Recently promoted to **Tier 2 Technical Support Engineer**, I specialize in configuring, securing, and maintaining Linux-based production servers.

I am highly passionate about moving deeper into **Linux Systems, DevOps, and Platform Engineering**. My daily operations involve service monitoring, system hardening, and writing automated health diagnostics. I specialize in diagnosing web stack configurations (Nginx, Apache, mail servers Postfix/Dovecot, DNS resolution protocols) and writing scripts in Bash and Python to automate infrastructure tasks.
