Summary
Manfred Larcher is an experienced Linux systems specialist and independent consultant from Tyrol with over two decades of hands-on experience designing, deploying and operating secure, highly available Linux platforms. He has run his own firm since 2001 and previously managed large mixed Windows/Linux environments and a dispersed network of ~850 devices, bringing deep expertise in firewalls, mail/proxy servers, backup solutions and DevOps/WebOps practices. Comfortable from kernel-level troubleshooting to web frontend concerns, he combines systems engineering with scripting and C/C++ programming to deliver pragmatic, automated operations. Regularly coordinating with customers, vendors and development teams, he turns complex operational requirements into reliable runbooks and infrastructure. An unconventional detail: he built bespoke cluster firewall solutions and self-developed administration tooling early in his career, reflecting a long-standing habit of inventing practical tools to fill gaps.
