AI and Automation Engineer, MCP, RAG, Claude Training
About this Gig
Your app works on your laptop. Let's make it work on the internet, properly.
As your DevOps engineer I take whatever you have built and put it on your own VPS: dockerised, behind HTTPS, restarting on its own, redeploying every time you push.
WHAT YOU GET
Your app live on your VPS at your domain, with free auto-renewing SSL
A Dockerfile and docker-compose you can read and change later
Traefik or Nginx in front, so adding your next service is a five-line change
GitHub Actions CI/CD: push to main, it deploys itself
Nightly database backups, and in Premium I actually test a restore
Hardening: firewall, no root SSH, unattended security updates
A handover doc: how to deploy, check logs, and roll back
STACKS I DEPLOY
Node, Next.js, Python, Django, Flask, FastAPI, Go, PHP, Laravel, static sites, plus Postgres, MySQL, Redis and MongoDB. Any VPS: Hostinger, Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS, Contabo.
ALSO POPULAR
Self-hosting n8n, Supabase or a local LLM with Ollama, so you stop paying per seat.
Tell me your stack and host and I will quote honestly before you order.

FAQ
Do I need to buy a server first?
Yes, and I will help you pick. A $6 a month Hetzner or DigitalOcean box handles most small apps comfortably. Buy it in your own account so you always own it - I never hold your infrastructure hostage.
Which hosting providers do you work with?
Any Linux VPS: DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode, Vultr, Contabo, AWS EC2, Google Cloud, Azure, Oracle Cloud, Hostinger. If you can SSH into it, I can deploy to it.
How do you access my server safely?
You create a separate user for me with an SSH key, and you delete it the moment we are done. I never ask for your root password, and I will tell you exactly which commands I ran.
My app has no Dockerfile. Is that a problem?
Not at all - writing it is part of the job in every package. Send me the repo and the run instructions you use locally and I will containerise it.
Can you move me off Vercel or Heroku to cut costs?
Yes, that is the $90 migration extra. Most small teams cut their bill by 60 to 90 percent. I will look at your usage first and tell you honestly if the saving is worth the move.
What happens if it breaks next month?
Standard includes 7 days of support and Premium 30, both covering anything that broke because of how I set it up. Beyond that, message me and I will send a custom offer for a monthly maintenance retainer.
