Ankit Raikwar
Infrastructure / Network Engineer
Based in Tokyo. After working in server operations and application support, I now focus on infrastructure and network engineering. I run a home lab for network build and configuration, and operate my own web applications on Google Cloud — learning the full path from design to operations. I work in both Japanese and English.
Infrastructure
