If you want to: Automate and scale the deployment of thousands of VPN servers across a global fleet, and design out single points of failure; Build reliable monitoring, logging, and anomaly detection that catches issues before they become incidents; Troubleshoot complex issues across Linux systems, networking, VPN protocols, and proxy layers; Reduce repetitive manual work with automation and internal tooling, from scripts to n8n workflows and Jira integrations; Part
