Summary
Balázs Nyirfa is a Linux System Engineer with 8 years of hands-on experience building and operating production-grade on-premises infrastructure, specializing in bare-metal Kubernetes on VMware and Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager (KVM/QEMU). He combines day-to-day incident response and L2/L3 support experience from telecom and BSS environments with platform modernization work—integrating cloud-native components and implementing ArgoCD/GitOps CI/CD pipelines. Comfortable bridging operations and development, he has designed clusters from scratch, automated legacy billing processes, and authored technical documentation to transfer knowledge across teams. Based in Budapest, he brings a pragmatic, security-conscious approach to modernization projects and describes himself (playfully) as a "corpo netrunner," hinting at a hacker mindset for navigating complex enterprise systems.
