About this site

Hey there! I'm Yacine, a Microsoft 365 Engineer and system administrator passionate about building reliable infrastructure and sharing what I learn along the way.

What I Do

I work at the intersection of Microsoft 365 administration, system engineering, and automation. My day-to-day involves architecting cloud solutions, scripting repetitive tasks into oblivion, and keeping infrastructure secure and running smoothly.

My expertise includes:

  • Microsoft 365 & Azure AD (Entra ID) administration
  • SharePoint, Teams, and Exchange management
  • PowerShell automation and scripting
  • Linux server administration and self-hosting
  • Infrastructure security and hardening
  • Docker containerization and deployment

Why This Blog?

I started this blog to document technical solutions, share real-world experiences, and contribute to the tech community that has taught me so much. You'll find practical tutorials, lessons learned from production issues, and honest takes on tools and technologies I work with.

I believe in learning in public and writing guides that I wish existed when I was troubleshooting at 2 AM.

Beyond Work

When I'm not managing servers or writing PowerShell scripts, I'm exploring self-hosted solutions, tinkering with Linux systems, and staying curious about new technologies. I'm particularly interested in infrastructure as code, DevOps practices, and finding elegant solutions to complex problems.

Let's Connect

I'm always happy to discuss tech, exchange ideas, or help troubleshoot tricky issues. Feel free to reach out:
