Database Administrator @ Multifonds Luxembourg

Engineer focused on the layers that hold systems together — databases, networks, virtualization. Database Administrator by day, homelab operator and security student by night.

In 2025 I completed the full Oracle Cloud Infrastructure certification track — Architect, Foundations, AI, Generative AI, Data Platform and AI Vector Search. Currently enrolled in Cybersecurity Essentials at LLLC · Chambre de Commerce Luxembourg, and maintainer of Snort Vision, an open-source visualization layer for Snort IDS alerts.

I lean open-source first, automate what I touch twice, and treat reliability and security as defaults — not features.
