Summary
Oleg Smirnov is a seasoned DevOps and Cloud Engineer with nine years of focused experience designing private clouds, automating infrastructure, and migrating legacy systems to containerized and cloud-native environments. Based in the Greater Munich area, he has built and operated large-scale networks and VPNs, led complex migrations across VMware, ProxMox, CEPH and GlusterFS, and implemented robust monitoring, logging and security practices. At CHECK24 he architects private cloud networks and "ansiblifies" non-containerized services while driving CI/CD, containerization and legacy modernization. His background as a network and systems engineer across telecom-grade Cisco environments and large enterprise deployments gives him deep expertise in routing, VoIP, and distributed storage that many cloud engineers lack. Comfortable with Unix scripting, SaltStack/Ansible automation, AWS/Azure, and CI pipelines, he blends low-level infrastructure mastery with pragmatic automation to reduce operational toil and accelerate delivery.
