Top SchoolMarius Gedminas is a DevOps engineer and seasoned Python systems programmer with 25 years of experience building and maintaining reliable infrastructure and developer tools from Lithuania. He combines deep Linux/system-administration instincts with a pragmatic focus on automation, monitoring, testing, and keeping buildbots green. His long-running consultancy and open-source work includes contributions to widely used projects such as Ansible, Certbot, Paramiko and the Pyramid web framework, where he improved core behavior, portability and documentation. Comfortable across backend, QA and some full‑stack work, he has a knack for fixing subtle bugs, improving test coverage and making deployment tooling deterministic. A former university lecturer, he also quietly supports local FOSS operations and has a history of improving developer ergonomics (e.g., buildout, Jenkins plugin tweaks, and diff_cover enhancements). Expect a pragmatic engineer who prefers durable, well-tested solutions and readable documentation over clever shortcuts.
