Hire

Hannes Tamme, PhD — OpenStack; Ceph; VyOS; production since 2016.
One senior engineer. Expensive compared to a junior, cheap compared to the outage.
Start with Basic review
Mapping the path from current state to goal. Sanity check included!
- Your admin left → Takeover
- The subscription renewal quadrupled → Platform migration
- The infrastructure is misbehaving → Rescue
- You are running out of space → Build
Why me and not a large IT company
- A big firm shows you its best engineer, then assigns whoever is free.
- In production since 2016 — everything that broke and got fixed is in the logbook.
- The devil is in the details. The details are below.

How it runs
- Your request to info@wirt.ee: what is broken or what you want built. One paragraph.
- The agreement. Both parties agree what is delivered, when, for what price, and how unknowns are handled.
- The work. During the progress you receive short written reports of what was done.
- Acceptance. A recorded handover — demonstrated and documented.
I am busy. That is true and not entirely true: a large enough check makes me less busy in a hurry. Waiting costs nothing, except the start date.
Limits
- No 24/7 on-call.
- No work touching the University of Tartu HPC centre.
- No free reviews.
- No single point of failure deployments.
