DNS Administrator

LeapSquare - Malta

As a DNS Administrator at LeapSquare, I managed a large portfolio of domains, DNS configurations, and servers, with a strong focus on leveraging AI and automation to improve efficiency and reliability. I designed and implemented automated workflows using tools like n8n to streamline routine tasks and reduce manual intervention. My role involved extensive work with Cloudflare, including setting up and managing DNS zones, configuring name servers, implementing WAF rules, and optimizing domain-level security and performance. This position required a detail-oriented and proactive approach to ensure stability, scalability, and rapid response in a fast-paced environment.

System Administrator

SiGMA - The World’s Online Gambling Authority - Malta

I was responsible for a wide range of IT operations, from onboarding new employees to managing Microsoft 365 and Entra ID. I handled hardware acquisition, setup, and maintenance, and led the full network installation of an office building — including cabling, purchasing equipment, and coordinating with suppliers to implement both networking and CCTV systems.

On the systems side, I worked extensively with Linux servers and virtual private servers (VPS), using SaltStack to manage and automate multiple droplets. I set up LEMP environments and configured Cloudflare for domain proxying and Zero Trust access control, and also worked with implmenting a CI/CD pipeline that enabled zero-downtime deployment for production systems.

I also transitioned the company’s Microsoft environment from a basic license setup to fully managed through Intune, improving device management, security, and compliance across the organization.
