PETERFARAH

Infrastructure Automation Engineer — Beirut, Lebanon

From Beirut to Paris and back.

What I do

I work in the space between packets — low-level networking, infrastructure automation, and threat intelligence. I like systems I can measure, automate, and trust.

The craft — research, homelab, automation, security

A packet's journey — client to router to tunnel to home server

CLIENT — every story here starts with a packet

ROUTER · AQM — queues decide who waits; my research taught a classifier to name them

TUNNEL · ZERO TRUST — no port forwarding, ever

HOME SERVER — landing on hardware I run myself

I care about every hop.
