Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarl Skantz is a pragmatic DevOps Engineer with 11 years’ experience building and operating Linux-first infrastructure across telecom, big data, and SaaS environments from Eskilstuna, Sweden. He specializes in CI/CD with GitLab Pipelines, infrastructure-as-code using Terraform and Ansible, container orchestration with Nomad and Docker, and observability stacks like ELK, often running on AWS. His background spans low-level Linux hardening, kernel tweaks and secure data transfers to higher-level automation for deployment and testing, reflecting strong security instincts alongside operational craft. Carl has repeatedly taken sole-responsibility roles—from NOC and single-region support to being the only support technician at a startup—so he thrives where ownership and reliability matter. He also runs a consulting company and enjoys tinkering with open source projects, which fuels his curiosity and practical problem-solving style. Colleagues describe him as someone who “makes stuff work somehow,” translating messy legacy systems into dependable production services.
