Happy Monday.
Please join me to welcome our latest member (contractor) to the Operations
Engineering team, Faidon Liambotis. Faidon hails from Greece and he will
be working remotely out of Athens. His immediate work at WMF with Ryan,
Andrew and Sara is to enhance and deploy more services on the new WIkimedia
Labs platform <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMF_Projects/Wikimedia_Labs>.
Faidon comes with lots of experience and expertise in deploying and
operating large scale LAMP-stack technologies and virtualized environment
(such as KVM & Ganeti), as well as a strong background in network
administration.
In addition, he is a active contributor and promoter of open-source
software and the free culture movement. He is a volunteer with Debian since
2004 and became a member of the Debian Project since 2006. Recently, he was
appointed to the Debian Systems Administration Infrastructure team.
Prior to joining WMF, Faidon worked as a systems engineer at the Greek
Research and Technology Network (GRNET), the national research and
education network of Greece, since 2004.
When not working, Faidon likes to travel around the world and meeting
people.
Faidon is enroute from Athens to San francisco currently and will be in the
SFO office starting tomorrow (10th of April) to be orientated and to work
with Tech Ops team. In fact, he mentioned if he is not too tired from the
flight, he might be in the office late int he afternoon today! For those in
SF office, do drop by and meet him in person when you have a chance.
Thanks,
CT
