As a project manager, I'm skilled at organizing and keeping track of tasks and tickets as well as communicating with both internal and external product owners and stake holders. My background in system administration, programming, tech, support, and technical writing is invaluable when evaluating and prioritizing projects and sub-projects.
(agile, scrum, MVP, Redmine, Jira, YouTrack, Redbooth)

As a system administrator, I can configure servers (local, remote, dedicated, and virtual) and networks. I'm experienced in establishing automatic backup, monitoring, and warning systems. I can script and automate testing, deployment, and other processes, and I know my way around virtualization and containerization.
(UNIX, BSD, Linux, TCP/IP, DNS, SSH, VPN, Nagios, rsnapshot, Perl, Python, bhyve, QEMU, VirtualBox, jails, Docker)

As a programmer, I know about Design Patterns and Best Practices and know how to research User Stories and implement Use Cases. I know how to architect code and solutions to be secure, scaleable, testable, and maintainable, and I can do code reviews and code refactoring and proper object orientation.

As a technician/supporter, I can build, configure, secure, and support most classes of computers, peripherials and devices. This includes everything from conducting respectful and supportive dialogue with non-technical users to hooking up an oscilloscope and whipping out a soldering iron.

As a technical writer, I'm able to work with style guides and Subject Matter Experts. I can write technical documentation and feature stories and short snippets. I can research subjects and produce texts targeted to specific audiences, media, and sizes, and I can do layout and create diagrams and other illustrations.

As a rule, I never stress for anything or anybody. I have a mercantile education (EFG Handel og Kontor basisår) from Køge Business College and a vocational programming education (EDB-assistent) from the precursor to Copenhagen Business College Niels Brock.
