Hire a Self-Hosting Specialist

I deploy self-hosted infrastructure that stays up. Nextcloud, Jitsi, Matrix, BigBlueButton, Moodle, mail servers - installed, hardened, backed up and documented on your own server. No per-seat subscriptions, no vendor lock-in, and your data never leaves infrastructure you control.

What I set up

  • Files & collaboration - Nextcloud (with OnlyOffice or Collabora), Seafile, Immich for photos
  • Video meetings - Jitsi Meet, BigBlueButton, LiveKit
  • Team chat - Matrix/Synapse with Element, Mattermost, Rocket.Chat
  • Learning & business apps - Moodle, CyberPanel, Odoo
  • Mail & security - Mailcow, Vaultwarden, WireGuard and Tailscale VPNs
  • Platform work - Docker and Kubernetes, reverse proxies with SSL, automated backups, monitoring and alerting, server-to-server migrations

Three ways to work with me

1. Deploy and hand over - from $75

Your application running properly on your server: hardened configuration, HTTPS, automated backups, monitoring and alerts, plus a short handover document so your team can operate it without me.

2. Migration - from $149

Move off Google Drive, Dropbox, Slack, Zoom or a managed host and onto your own infrastructure - with your data, users and history intact. Or between two servers without downtime.

3. Care plan - from $99 per month

I keep it healthy: updates, backup verification, monitoring and priority fixes when something breaks. You stop thinking about the server entirely.

Those are indicative starting points - every project gets a proper fixed quote after a short call.

How it works

  1. A short call - about 15 minutes. You explain what you need, I tell you what it takes.
  2. A fixed quote - scope, timeline, price. No hourly surprises later.
  3. I build and test it - on your server, or one I provision for you.
  4. Handover - everything documented, credentials are yours, and I stay reachable afterwards.

Why work with me

  • I do this every day. These are production deployments, not tutorials - with the hardening and the backup strategy that keeps them alive at 3am.
  • 5.0 stars across 86 client reviews. Long-running client relationships, not one-off jobs.
  • You own everything. Your server, your data, your credentials. Walk away whenever you like and keep it all working.
  • Timezone-friendly. I work with clients across Europe, the US and Australia, and I communicate in clear, direct English.

Let's talk

Email me at [email protected] with a sentence or two about what you want to run, and I will tell you honestly what it takes - including if the answer is "you do not need me for this".
