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.
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.

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.

Data Security: Backups are only good once the restoration process has been tested.
Infrastructure & Operations
Practical foundations in server and client operations, virtualization (Proxmox VE, KVM/QEMU, VMware), Docker/LXC, Bash scripting, and first automation topics.
Linux & Server Services
Work with Linux systems such as Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, and Alpine. Comfortable with terminal workflows, SSH, systemd, reverse proxies, DNS/DHCP basics, and common server services.
Networks & Security
Practical experience with VLANs, routing basics, VPNs (WireGuard/OpenVPN/Tailscale), OPNsense, UniFi, and structured network troubleshooting.
Support & Technical Systems
Technical support on-site and remote, troubleshooting in live environments, and support for POS systems, peripherals, and event-related IT/AV systems.
Planning and execution of migrating a Windows Server 2012 R2 Active Directory and DNS structure to a modern server OS. Includes FSMO role transfer, DHCP migration, and DNS cleanup.
Setup of a monitoring solution for server health and network load. Visualization of metrics in Grafana dashboards. Alerts on service downtime or storage shortages via Discord/Telegram webhooks.
Physical and logical integration of IP security cameras (NVR) and IoT systems. Isolation of devices in separate VLANs without WAN access, securing remote access via dedicated WireGuard VPN.
Configuration of a Linux workstation for daily tasks and technical audio processing. Optimization of audio latency via PipeWire, virtualization of Windows test systems via KVM/QEMU with GPU passthrough.
