About Pit wall
Pit
wall.
I keep enterprise infrastructure running by day, and I help build the tools I wish existed for it. When there isn't a tool for the job, I write one. Some of those tools are now the way my team works.
My day job is virtualisation and server infrastructure at an enterprise software company: VMware, Nutanix, Windows Server, identity, and the automation that glues them together.
Outside of work I run a two-node Proxmox homelab, and I spend as many weekends as I can at the track on a motorcycle. GhostLap started because I wanted to know exactly where I was losing time.

04 Homelab
Where TouchBoard was bornA two-node Proxmox cluster, ZFS storage and a segmented network. It's the rack TouchBoard was built for, and where new ideas get broken first.
