Windows Server, AD, DNS, DHCP, Group Policy, Sophos Firewall, VLANs, VPNs and the boring-but-important foundations.
IT Specialist · Homelab · Automation
Building reliable systems with a hands-on tech mindset.
I’m Marko — an IT specialist focused on Windows Server, Microsoft 365, Proxmox, Docker, monitoring, smart home automation and self-hosted infrastructure.
About me
A technical profile with a practical edge — systems, networks, automation and the kind of details that make infrastructure dependable.
I like technology that is understandable, documented and reliable. My daily world includes Windows Server, Active Directory, Exchange/Microsoft 365, Group Policy, networking, virtualization and monitoring.
Outside of work I run and improve my homelab: Proxmox, Docker, Home Assistant, Sophos, Grafana/Loki, Zabbix, Wazuh, Authentik, Cloudflare Tunnel and other self-hosted services. If something can be automated, monitored or cleaned up, I’m probably already thinking about it.
I also enjoy practical 3D printing, smart home projects, small tools and building things that solve real problems instead of just looking nice in a dashboard.

3D Printing
What I focus on
The common thread is simple: make systems cleaner, safer, easier to understand and easier to operate.
▣
Homelab & self-hosting
Proxmox, Docker, reverse proxies, Authentik, monitoring, backup concepts and services that run on hardware I control.
⚙
Automation & monitoring
Scripts, dashboards, alerting, logs and workflows that reduce manual work and make problems visible before they become incidents.
Projects
Practical tools from my homelab and 3D printing workflow — built to solve real problems and stay maintainable.
featured project
Printbuddy
Printbuddy is a modern, self-hosted dashboard for managing a 3D printer fleet. It brings printer status, active jobs, material details, alerts and operational views into one clean interface.
The goal is simple: make multi-printer monitoring easier, reduce context switching and give makers a better overview of what is printing, idle or needs attention.
Fleet overview for multiple 3D printers
Live print progress, material and temperature context
Self-hosted control surface designed for homelabs and print farms
