Jan-Niklas Becker

IT Infrastructure & System Integration // Dortmund

System integration specialist focusing on IT infrastructure, Linux, networks, virtualization, and technical support. Practical, structured, and focused on understandable solutions.

[01_ABOUT_ME]

--------------------------------------------------

I completed my training as a system integration specialist in June 2026 and am looking for a role in IT infrastructure, system administration, technical support, or infrastructure operations.

My focus is on Linux, virtualization, networks, and reliable operation of technical systems. When troubleshooting, I follow a structured approach and document solutions so they remain useful in daily operations.

In addition, I work privately with Proxmox, OPNsense, UniFi, monitoring, and smaller embedded/IoT projects. Through my part-time job I also bring hands-on experience with POS systems and event technology.

=== Core Principles ===
  • [X]
    Hands-On & Pragmatic: Cables, stable VMs, and structured operations.
  • [X]
    Troubleshooting: Logical elimination instead of blind guessing.
  • [X]
    Documentation: Changes and solutions should still be understandable later.
  • [X]
    Data Security: Backups are only good once the restoration process has been tested.
