I build and run sovereign infrastructure: Kubernetes in production, self-hosted AI stacks, observability, and automation. Hire that experience as a packaged workshop for your team — fixed scope, fixed price, remote or on-site, invoiced as usual.
Fixed scope, fixed price, for teams of up to 10. Every workshop is hands-on: your people, your infrastructure, working systems at the end. The linked guide is the syllabus — what you read there is what we build together.
2 days · up to 10 people · remote or on-site
From a blank server to a production k3s cluster: Rancher management, MetalLB, Longhorn replicated storage, Traefik ingress, etcd backups, and a disaster-recovery rehearsal on day two. Based on the k3s guide.
2 days · up to 10 people · remote or on-site
LLMs on your own hardware: Ollama serving, Open WebUI, LiteLLM routing, and a production Dify deployment with RAG — including the compliance conversation the EU product liability rules demand. Based on the self-hosted AI guide and the Dify guide.
1 day · up to 10 people · remote or on-site
Metrics, logs, and dashboards that people actually use: Prometheus, node-exporter, cAdvisor, Loki with Alloy, and a pre-provisioned Grafana — left running on your infrastructure. Based on the observability guide.
1 day · up to 10 people · remote or on-site
Workflow automation that survives restarts: n8n in queue mode with Redis and PostgreSQL, integration patterns for ERP-to-Slack pipelines, and operational guardrails. Based on the n8n guide.
Something else in mind — database foundations, S3 backup architecture, TLS edge with CrowdSec? All of it exists as guides and can be packaged as a workshop.
