About Nico

I moved from London (where I moved in November 2010) to Berlin at the beginning of this year. In London, I worked as a freelance IT consultant and would like to continue doing so, as I find the variety and challenge very positive.

I am relatively flexible regarding possible locations, although I would prefer projects in the greater Berlin area.

In terms of projects, I look forward to anything related to DevOps, such as managing source code with common VCS systems, creating CI/CD pipelines, automating infrastructure provisioning in cloud environments, test automation, etc.

I look forward to being proposed exciting projects.
