Senior🎓
Top SchoolSikander Lhote is an IT Architect and founder with 11 years’ experience building and operating Linux-centric, open-source infrastructure and automation for startups and enterprises from Tromsø, Norway. He combines deep hands-on expertise in Linux, container orchestration, Ansible and OpenStack with a product mindset from running Frey.ai—an AI-driven automation startup for recirculating aquaculture systems—where he served as chief architect and operator. His background spans DevOps engagements converting docker-compose to Kubernetes, managing OpenShift and hardened banking infrastructure, and troubleshooting production Bitcoin services, reflecting both breadth and operational rigor. Comfortable designing distributed systems and running day-to-day ops, he brings a pragmatic, security-conscious approach to complex deployments and a longtime enthusiasm for Bitcoin and open-source ecosystems. An unusual strength is his ability to pivot between early-stage startup product work and enterprise-grade operational discipline, making him effective across the stack from hardware to cloud.
