Network engineering & system administration
IT professional with over eight years of hands-on experience in IT support and system administration. Graduate of HTL Informatics (networking & system administration) in 2026, starting the part-time BSc in IT Security in September 2026. I am looking for my next step in networking, IT security and IT administration.
Open to roles in networking, IT security & IT administration
About me
BN
For more than eight years I have been looking after IT workplaces, networks and users – most recently as the sole IT administrator for about 12 workstations including network and peripherals. Along the way I learned to analyse problems in a structured way, document solutions clearly and bring users along.
My focus is deliberately shifting towards networking, IT security and system administration: HTL Informatics (networking) graduate in 2026, and from September 2026 the part-time BSc in IT Security at St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences (secure infrastructure & networking, Windows/Linux administration, cloud security).
On the side I build my own tools and websites – for example a database-backed application (PHP/MySQL/Docker) that replaced a manual Excel workflow.
