About Me

Overview

My name is Sam Al-Sapti. I'm a newly graduated software developer from Denmark. My main interests are backend development, DevOps, DevSecOps, IT security, open-source and Linux.

Further, I'm an advocate for online privacy, I'm against attention economy and surveillance capitalism, I'm a big supporter of the Free Software movement, I'm a digital minimalist, and I'm a member of data.coop (I'm also one of the system administrators). Also, you won't find me on Facebook or any other Big Tech social media platform (except for LinkedIn, but that's not really a social media platform).

Some technologies and tech concepts I'm familiar with are:

• Programming languages:
  • Bash
  • C
  • C++
  • C#
  • F#

  • Java
  • Python
• DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, Ansible, cloud (DigitalOcean, Hetzner), Git
• Docker/Podman, virtualization software (QEMU/KVM, VirtualBox, Vagrant)
• Linux systems and server environments
• Basic IT security principles and best practices
