Skills
Languages, systems and tools — sorted by what I have actually built and operated with them.
Python & automation
The language most of my automation is written in: reconciling orders through APIs, nightly CSV processing, small web services and reports nobody has to trigger by hand any more.
Web development
A classic server stack without framework pressure: PHP with MySQL behind it, HTML, CSS and JavaScript in the browser — and Shopify themes with Liquid when the shop lives there.
Windows & servers
Running my own servers rather than managed hosting — including the automation around them.
Linux & devices
Ubuntu on servers, Raspberry Pi as a client — for displays as much as for in-car hardware.
Virtualisation
Setting up test environments before anything touches a production system.
Networking & IT support
Grounded in my training and the Google certificate: understanding networks, narrowing down faults, helping users without jargon.
E-commerce & visibility
Four years of running my own shop also means measuring, advertising and adjusting.
Tools & analysis
What I reach for when something is undocumented.
Office & organisation
Documentation, calculations and handovers — the unspectacular part that keeps projects running.
AI tools
As an accelerator for research, code review and translation — not as a substitute for understanding.

Professional strengths
-
Explaining without jargonYears in hospitality mean explaining technical matters so they land without prior knowledge — and staying calm when somebody is in a hurry.
-
Accuracy under pressureIn banquet service it has to be right the first time. Exactly the same is true of a nightly data sync.
-
Three languages dailyLithuanian, German and English — useful with guests, with suppliers, and with documentation that exists only in English.
