Kim Selin is a Senior Technical Specialist with 12 years of hands-on experience designing and automating hybrid-cloud and networked infrastructure across telecom and SaaS environments. Based in Halmstad, Sweden, he combines deep expertise in Ansible, Python, NetBox customization, and virtualization platforms (vSphere, Nutanix, Proxmox, Hyper-V) to run and scale thousands of Linux hosts. At Tele2 he built and maintained in-house NetBox installations and integrations, contributed backend template and tenancy improvements to the well-known NetBox project, and owned Red Hat provisioning and multi-region DNS/NTP design. He has a strong track record of turning fragile manual setups into automated, reproducible deployments—especially in multi-region and high-availability contexts—and mentors teams through tooling and architecture choices. Open to remote contract work and occasional on-site engagements across southern Scandinavia, he blends pragmatic operations skills with software engineering discipline. An unconventional detail: he has governance experience from serving on a municipal utilities board, bringing stakeholder-level perspective to technical decisions.
