<p>I am <span class="b" itemprop="name">Gergely Polonkai</span>
|

(sometimes referred to

|
|
as <span itemprop="nickname">W00d5t0ck</span>

|

|
|
itemprop="jobTitle">software developer, systems engineer and
|

administrator</span>. I was born on <span class="b"
|

|
|
itemprop="birthDate">7 March, 1983</span> in Budapest, Hungary. I
|
|||
|
|
spent my life moving here-and-there in the country, and finally
|

|
|
settled in <span class="b" itemprop="address" itemscope
|

|
|
itemtype="http://schema.org/Address">
|

|
|
<span itemprop="locality">Budapest</span></span>. Although

I have already found my mate for life, I
|

|
|
am <span class="b">single</span> yet (living in a common-law
|

|

marriage), being the proud father of a son and a daughter.</p>
|

<p>You can reach me on <span class="b"

|

|
|
on <span class="b" itemprop="telephone">+36 (30)
|

|
|||
|
|
write <span class="b">English</span>
|
|||
|
|
and <span class="b">Hungarian</span>.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>I have <span class="b">graduated in 2001</span>
|
|||
|
|
from <span class="i">Táncsics Mihály Szakközépiskola, Szakiskola
|
|||
|
|
és Kollégium</span>, an architecture high school based in
|
|||
|
|
Veszprém, Hungary. There, I learned
|
|||
|
|
about <span class="b">electricity and elevators</span>, while
|
|||
|
|
getting my feet wet in the area of IT systems
|
|||
|
|
engineering. Together with some teachers, we
|
|||
|
|
developed <span class="b keyword" title="network building">the IT
|
|||
|
|
infrastructure of the school, building it from scratch</span>
|
|||
|
|
with <span class="b keyword">Windows XP</span> based clients,
|
|||
|
|
and <span class="b keyword">Debian GNU/Linux</span> servers
|
|||
|
|
with <span class="b keyword">Squid proxy</span>, an <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">Apache httpd</span> web server, <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">Exim</span>+<span class="b keyword">Courier IMAP</span>
|
|||
|
|
based internal mailing and a <span class="b keyword">Samba file
|
|||
|
|
server</span>. Meanwhile, I have created the school’s
|
|||
|
|
first <span class="b keyword" title="web development">web
|
|||
|
|
page</span> using <span class="b keyword">Perl CGI</span>, and
|
|||
|
|
later it’s replacement in <span class="b keyword">PHP</span>.
|
|||
|
|
Although I did that as a student, I consider
|
|||
|
|
it my first job. You can contact <span class="b">Imre
|
|||
|
|
Pataki</span> at +36 (20) 970-5830 if you need more
|
|||
|
|
information.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>My first contract was made in <span class="b">2002</span>
|
|||
|
|
with <span class="b">GaTeS Group Kft.</span>, a Budapest
|
|||
|
|
based <span class="b">ISP</span> that served Internet connection
|
|||
|
|
to a large warren. I have mastered Linux based <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword" title="firewalls">firewalling and routing</span> there
|
|||
|
|
using <span class="b keyword noupper">iptables</span>,
|
|||
|
|
and <span class="b keyword" title="QoS">tc for QoS</span>. I have
|
|||
|
|
also created a <span class="b">web page</span> for the company
|
|||
|
|
using <span class="b keyword">PHP</span> and <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword" title="MySQL database development">MySQL</span>. The
|
|||
|
|
company went through several merges since then. My only contact
|
|||
|
|
was Ákos Szabó, whose phone number is not reachable any more.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>After that, I contracted with <span class="b">Webvilág
|
|||
|
|
Kft.</span> in <span class="b">2004</span>. It was
|
|||
|
|
a <span class="b">web development company</span>, where I was in
|
|||
|
|
the role of both a <span class="b keyword" title="web
|
|||
|
|
development">web developer</span> and a <span class="b keyword"
|
|||
|
|
title="Systems administration">systems administrator</span>. I
|
|||
|
|
have mastered <span class="b keyword">PHP</span> there, together
|
|||
|
|
with <span class="b keyword">MySQL administration</span>. I also
|
|||
|
|
built a small <span class="b keyword"
|
|||
|
|
title="routers">router</span>/<span class="b keyword"
|
|||
|
|
title="firewalls">firewall</span> out of a PC for office
|
|||
|
|
needs. Although the company has changed its name to Fejlesztők
|
|||
|
|
Háza Kft., you may still contact <span class="b">Péter Bali</span>
|
|||
|
|
at +36 (70) 318-4050.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>My next job came in <span class="b">2006</span>, when I
|
|||
|
|
contracted with <span class="b">eWorldCom Kft.</span>, a
|
|||
|
|
small <span class="b">VoIP company</span>, developing a call
|
|||
|
|
center software based on <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">Asterisk</span>. My job was to create a small base system
|
|||
|
|
for this software, while managing the old, Ubuntu based ones. For
|
|||
|
|
the new version we targeted <span class="b keyword">Gentoo
|
|||
|
|
Linux</span> because of its possible small size, and performance
|
|||
|
|
reasons. The company since then merged with Virtual Call Center
|
|||
|
|
Kft. You may reach my ex-bosses (Tamás Jalsovszky and Szabolcs
|
|||
|
|
Tóth) there, altough I don’t know any of their new contacts.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The job that followed was with <span class="b">Lufthansa
|
|||
|
|
Systems Hungary</span> in <span class="b">2007</span>, where I
|
|||
|
|
became the member of a large team supporting and administering
|

several thousand servers, mostly based on <span class="b
|
|||
|

|
|||

<p>All this knowledge came in very handy, when I went

to <span class="b">Brokernet Group Zrt.</span>
|

in <span class="b">2010</span>. The IT infrastructure was in a

very bad shape there, and our job was to rebuild most of it from

|
|
<p>Since I left the company in <span class="b">2013</span>, I am
|
|||
|
|
working as a <span class="b">freelancer developer</span> and
|
|||
|
|
a <span class="b">systems engineer</span> for
|
|||
|
|
a <span class="b">startup network monitoring company</span>. Here
|
|||
|
|
we are building a help desk system using open source products
|
|||
|
|
like <span class="b keyword">OTRS::ITSM</span>, <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">OpenLDAP</span>, and <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">Zabbix</span>.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In my <span class="b">free time</span>, I wander in forests,
|
|||
|
|
take pictures, and sometimes manipulate them with
|
|||
|
|
the <span class="b keyword">GIMP</span>. Sometimes I write short
|
|||
|
|
fantasy or sci-fi novels using <span class="b
|
|||
|
|
keyword">LibreOffice</span>. I am also developing some software
|
|||
|
|
in <span class="b keyword">C</span>, whose source code is managed
|
|||
|
|
with <span class="b keyword">Git</span>. When I’m not in the mood
|
|||
|
|
for writing, I go and check out the news on several technical
|
|||
|
|
areas, mostly IT and engineering, or give a try to a new
|
|||
|
|
programming language in the name of “why not?”. Currently I’m
|
|||
|
|
experimenting with Python.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>As an employee I am looking for firms where can I use and
|
|||
|
|
develop my skills, while getting financial stability through an
|
|||
|
|
interesting job.</p>
