PROFILE
Szymon Grabowski
DevOps Engineer
Racibórz, Poland · remote
I work as a DevOps Engineer. I design AWS infrastructure as code, automate server configuration and application deployments, and set up monitoring and runbooks.
Before that I spent a year keeping IT systems running in Żabka Polska’s logistics operations: diagnosing incidents, finding root causes and documenting fixes for recurring failures. This site is my own application on a VPS with k3s, run end to end by me; 2.2 shows how.
