Summary
š¤©
RockstarSimon Pirschel is a Senior DevOps Engineer with a decade of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native, containerized platforms across startups and enterprise environments. He combines deep Linux and Python expertise with production-grade skills in Kubernetes, Docker, SaltStack, Prometheus/Grafana, and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, Jenkins) to automate and scale services on AWS. As a technical co-founder and later VP/Chief Architect at Abusix, and now leading DevOps at Nitrado while running his own consultancy and CEO role, he blends operator rigor with product-minded architecture. Known for a selective professional network, Simon favors consultancy engagements and pragmatic, security-conscious solutions that stand the test of real traffic. An underrated strength is his track record moving between hands-on engineering and leadership roles, consistently delivering observable systems with centralized logging and metrics at their core.
