About me

evgeniy@farsobin

-----------------

OS:Gentoo Linux (primary), Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Arch, Manjaro

Host:Moscow, Russia

Kernel:C++ · Python · Bash · PowerShell

Uptime:2 years 7 months

Shell:zsh + bash

WM:DevOps / SRE / EDA

Editor:CLion, VS Code, Vim

Education:MIET, InEl — IC design

VCS:gitflic.ru/user/rah1t

Graduated from MIET (Moscow Institute of Electronics and Mathematics) with a BSc in Electronics and Nanoelectronics — design and development of integrated circuits. I came from the engineering world into infrastructure and development, and found my calling there.

My core stack is Linux infrastructure: Terraform + Ansible on top of Proxmox, Docker for packaging and service delivery, GitLab CI for building and shipping C++ projects, monitoring with VictoriaMetrics + Grafana.

I run Ubuntu, Debian, Manjaro, CentOS, Arch and Gentoo (Gentoo is my daily driver). Manual source rebuilds of packages — openvpn, qt, tcl, scintilla, and plenty more.

In my spare time — a homelab: Kubernetes cluster (my own Ansible roles first, then kubespray), Jenkins with webhooks, OpenVPN/WireGuard VPN servers, local LLM inference on llama.cpp.

Work experience

commit f4a9c1e (HEAD -> main) · December 2024 — present · 1 yr 9 mo

SRE / DevOps @

Russian Research Center "Kurchatov Institute" — National Research University of Electronic Technology (MIET) · Moscow

GitLab CI pipelines for building and shipping C++ projects
Multi-target build matrix: Debian 12, CentOS 6.10, Ubuntu 20.04/22.04, Astra Linux — each target built in its own Docker environment; Win64 via cross-compilation from a Debian base
Automated build & deploy pipelines for 16–20 third-party tools (tcl, opensta, qt, lexilla, scintilla, qscintilla and more) — artifacts published to Artifactory
Wrote CMakeLists and bash scripts to automate the build process
Described Proxmox infrastructure with Terraform + Ansible
Fixed cloud-init for CentOS 6 (user configuration and network setup did not work out of the box)
