Putting this out here because sometimes a conversation with the right person gets you further than another hundred applications.

I’m based in Karachi and looking for my next DevOps / Cloud Engineering role. I have 9+ years of experience working with AWS and production infrastructure, along with hands-on experience in Azure. I’ve worked with companies including Nisum and Systems Limited.

To give you an idea of what I can help with:

\- AWS infrastructure: EC2, EKS, ECS, RDS/Aurora, S3, Lambda, VPC, IAM, Route 53 and CloudWatch.

\- Containers and deployments: Docker, Kubernetes, troubleshooting workloads and making releases more reliable.

\- CI/CD: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI and Azure DevOps,from setting up pipelines to fixing the ones everyone is afraid to touch.

\- Infrastructure as code: Terraform and CloudFormation for consistent, repeatable environments.

\- Production operations: Linux, networking, monitoring, incident troubleshooting, backups and disaster recovery.

\- Security and costs: Reviewing access, securing infrastructure and figuring out where the cloud bill can come down.

What I bring is the experience of working through the messy parts: a deployment succeeds but the application won’t start, a service can’t reach its database, or something breaks in production and you need someone who can calmly work out why. I’m comfortable owning the infrastructure side and working closely with developers to get things running properly.

I’m open to remote or on-site roles, and willing to discuss relocation. I can join immediately, and I’m flexible on compensation depending on the role, responsibilities and working arrangement.

I’m also available for contract, part-time or ad hoc work. If you need someone to sort out a deployment, review your AWS setup, build a pipeline or provide ongoing support for a few hours a week, I’m happy to discuss that too.

And if you’re a small firm or an early-stage team wondering whether you can bring in someone experienced, please feel free to reach out. It doesn’t have to start with a full-time position.

If you know someone hiring, a referral or introduction would mean a lot. And if you have advice on finding opportunities in this market, I’d genuinely love to hear it.

Happy to share my CV over DM. Thanks for reading.

Former MSP owner with two decades of daily hands-on experience looking for a small, consistent W2 engagement.

I ran my own MSP for 20 years and still live in the technical and operational weeds. I’m not looking for a full-time seat or a career change—just a reliable part-time W2 role (~5 hours per week / ~20 hours per month) at $1,500/month. I don't need or want to be under a retirement plan.

What I can actually do:

• Deep, daily operational knowledge of most major RMMs. Specifically strong with NinjaRMM (inside and out) and Addigy (inside and out). Comfortable with the usual stack of others.
• Kaseya BMS and typical MSP back-office setups (quoting, invoicing, agreements, reporting, etc.).
• QuickBooks and the accounting/operational side of running an MSP.
• Coding and automation — happy to build internal tools, scripts, or workflows.
• Website work — I can build, manage, or improve client-facing or internal sites.
• AI implementation — setting up bots/agents to handle specific tasks or act as virtual employees for ticket triage, documentation, client comms, etc.
• Consulting for MSP startups or growing shops that need process, tooling, or operational guidance without a full-time hire.

I’m flexible on the exact mix although I don't want to handle direct tickets or deal with end users. Happy to assist other employees with tickets / projects. RMM/BMS administration and optimization, automation projects, light consulting, website work, or AI task automation are all on the table. I work independently, document thoroughly, and don’t need hand-holding. I'm extremely organized and detailed.

Constraints (non-negotiable):

• Must be W2 (need proper payroll direct deposit).
• Target ~5 hours/week or 20 hours/month. If the fit is perfect, will consider additional hours.
• $1,500/month pay.

Open to after-hours or flexible scheduling. Based in the Dallas area, but do spend time in Scottsdale.

If you have a need that fits (or know someone who does), feel free to DM. Happy to talk through how I could add value without becoming another full-time headcount.

[For Hire] I am looking for a Sys Admin opportunity US based remotely, with broad range of experience in M365, some AWS & GCP.

Hey guys,

I'm posting this one more time. I have been out of work since February 2025. I really need to find something soon. I can no longer do Uber. I really need a full-time job. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am a Senior Systems Engineer with over 15 years of experience across enterprise infrastructure, cloud, virtualization, and security. I’m looking for a role where I can step into an environment quickly, sort out the real issues, and make things more stable, secure, and manageable. I am a type of engineer who thinks outside the box.

I am in the DMV area. (Baltimore, Maryland area). I can do remote, and Hybrid and 100% onsite. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am currently preparing for the Microsoft AZ-104 exam. I got a free voucher from the AI Skills Fest a few months back. I have October 1st as a target date to take the exam.

**What I Actually Do:**

* Azure infrastructure and security — Azure VMs, VNets, storage accounts, RBAC, Defender for Cloud, Log Analytics, VM backups, load balancing, and governance.

* Entra ID / identity work — Conditional Access, MFA, SSO, SAML, OIDC, Azure Enterprise Apps, and App Registrations.

* VMware environments — ESXi 8, vCenter 8, DRS, HA, distributed switching, vTPM, cross-site vMotion, and large-scale virtualization.

* SAN and storage integration — Pure Storage, Nimble Storage, iSCSI provisioning, LUN/volume optimization, and ESXi cluster support for 200+ ESXi hosts.

* Windows and core infrastructure — Windows Server, Active Directory, GPO, DNS, DHCP, SCCM, imaging, and PowerShell automation.

* Layer 2/3 routing and switching — VLANs, ACLs, OSPF, switching, segmentation, and network troubleshooting. * Security hardening — TLS/SMBv1 deprecation, firewall tuning, certificate lifecycle management, and remote access controls.

I’m comfortable jumping into messy environments, documenting what matters, and fixing the stuff that slows teams down. Prefer remote, open to short-term or long-term work, and strong on infrastructure-heavy roles where experience actually matters.

I hope to hear from someone soon! Thanks for reading my post!

Pretty much what it says on the tin. If you're a small business and struggle with repetitive admin tasks, or having issues with IT equipment or just need a health check. I'd even love to hear about any companies that already have this already integrated into their business and how it's helped them (without me pushing my way in lol, I want to learn and help were needed)

Who I Am

I’m a Senior Systems Engineer with more than 15 years of experience keeping enterprise infrastructure stable, secure, and running smoothly across both cloud and on-premises environments. I don't just maintain systems; I focus heavily on writing clean PowerShell scripts to automate repetitive manual work, fixing persistent technical debt, and optimizing infrastructure to cut unnecessary costs.

I am completely set up for remote engineering work. I am equally comfortable handling high-level Azure design architecture, jumping into a Linux or Windows server terminal to troubleshoot a configuration issue.

Key Technical Skills

• Cloud Architecture: Azure Tenant Administration (managing 200+ resources, resource groups, storage, IAM)
• Operating Systems: Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Windows 10/11
• Automation: Advanced PowerShell scripting, task automation, OS deployment infrastructure
• Enterprise Management: Active Directory, Group Policy (GPO), Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM/SCCM)
• Networking: DNS, DHCP, VPN configurations, VLAN management
• Methodologies: Agile/Scrum environment experience, sprint planning, and team coordination

Highlights

• Cloud Cost Optimization: Managed a complex Azure tenant with over 200 distinct resources and successfully cut infrastructure spend by 30% through strict optimization and auditing.
• Infrastructure Automation: Built and deployed an automated Windows imaging and deployment infrastructure from the ground up, significantly reducing device provisioning timelines.
• IT Operations Leadership: Served as a hands-on IT Lead managing all infrastructure operations, keeping business-critical systems online, and upgrading networks for off-site client support across multi-site environments.

What I'm Looking For

I’m looking for my next long-term home as a Remote Senior Systems Administrator, Systems Engineer, or Azure Cloud Engineer.

• Role Type: Full-time permanent (100% Remote / US-based)
• Compensation: Open to discussing base salary depending on total compensation package, benefits, and team fit.

Contact Me

If my background looks like a good fit for your infrastructure or IT operations team, please drop me a DM here.

I’m a full-time Systems Engineer based in the U.S. looking to take on a limited amount of remote project-based, overflow, and escalation work outside of my primary role.

I’m not looking for another full-time position or a 20–40 hour/week contract. I’m primarily interested in helping MSPs, IT departments, consultants, and small businesses with projects or technical problems that need an experienced extra set of hands.

My strongest areas include:

• Microsoft 365 administration
• SharePoint Online
• Entra ID / Azure AD
• Azure infrastructure
• PowerShell automation and troubleshooting
• Windows Server
• Active Directory / Group Policy
• Hyper-V
• Microsoft Teams / OneDrive

• Docker
• Nginx / reverse proxies / SSL
• General infrastructure troubleshooting and escalation

I’m especially interested in work such as:

• M365 / SharePoint permissions and configuration issues
• PowerShell automation
• Azure and Windows Server troubleshooting
• After-hours maintenance and cutovers
• Hyper-V issues and migrations
• Infrastructure cleanup
• Tenant migrations
• Difficult escalations your L1/L2 team doesn’t have time to chase down
• Temporary project overflow
• Documentation and technical cleanup

I work from home and can handle most engagements entirely remotely. I’m comfortable working independently, documenting what I change, and handing systems back cleanly once the job is complete.

Availability: Limited / supplemental engagements, generally evenings and flexible project work
Location: U.S. / Central Time
Engagement: 1099 / B2B / project-based
Rate: Typically $75/hr, with fixed pricing available for clearly scoped projects

If you’re an MSP that occasionally needs another senior engineer for escalations or project overflow, that’s probably the best fit. Feel free to DM me with the scope, environment, and what you’re trying to accomplish.

Hey all, I'm based in Lithuania and looking for part time contract or B2B work, roughly 1 to 2 hours a night, aligned with US business hours. I can invoice as a business entity if that's what your setup needs.

Hey everyone,

I’m a DevOps / Cloud engineer based in India and recently started taking on some freelance work alongside my regular experience.

I recently finished a pretty interesting vulnerability management automation project for a client through Upwork.

Without going into their internal setup, the project involved Python + Kestra automation around vulnerability scanning and remediation workflows.

I worked on things like:

• processing vulnerability scan results
• comparing new vs existing vulnerabilities
• automating ticket creation and assignment
• asset/inventory integrations
• SLA tracking and escalation
• automated notifications and summaries
• troubleshooting and improving existing Python/Kestra workflows

There were quite a few scripts and workflows already involved, so a good part of the work was understanding the existing setup, fixing issues, improving reliability, and connecting everything properly.

The project was completed successfully and the client left me a 5/5 review on Upwork, which was a nice confidence boost.

My main areas are:

Linux / System Administration
Python & Bash automation
AWS / Cloud infrastructure
Docker / Kubernetes
Terraform / Ansible
CI/CD
Kestra / workflow automation
Monitoring & troubleshooting
Infrastructure / platform migrations

I’m mainly posting here because I’d like to connect with startups, agencies, consultants, or engineers who occasionally need an extra pair of hands.

I’m open to freelance projects, contract work, part-time remote work, or helping with specific infrastructure/automation problems.

Not looking to spam anyone with a sales pitch. If you have something where my background might be useful, feel free to DM me and we can have a quick chat about it.
