Peter Hazenberg is a seasoned systems and operations leader with 15 years of hands-on experience across Linux server provisioning, embedded systems, IoT, and security monitoring, now serving as Chief Operating Systems Officer in The Hague. He blends deep practical skills—from building and maintaining dedicated servers and RAID systems to developing embedded decoders for USB Power Delivery—with strategic oversight of observability and infrastructure. An active open-source contributor, Peter improved the libsigrok usb_power_delivery decoder (adding wattage display, PDO/RDO logic and PPS support) and adapted classic terminal software like nyancat for diverse terminal types. His background spans DevOps, security monitoring with McAfee/AlienVault, and automation for containerized Matrix deployments with Prometheus/Grafana. Colleagues rely on his pragmatic approach to refactor and harden systems while keeping deployments observable and maintainable. He brings a rare combination of low-level embedded insight and production-scale operations expertise.
