Hi!

Might as well introduce myself as I’ve posted some here and there already.

Real name is Bart, live in the Netherlands. Currently working as a Linux (dev/ops/sre) engineer at a large firm where I’ve introduced Ansible and Ansible AWX about a year ago. Already had some experience prior with Ansible, but expanded my knowledge a lot the past year on Ansible.

I’ll be here to mooch around and gain knowledge, help out where I can, and possibly contribute to Ansible at some point.

Hi,

I am a senior professional with extensive experience, currently working as a Principal Engineer at a large firm. I have a strong passion for automation and a keen interest in Ansible/Tower. Last year, I introduced Ansible to my organization, where we successfully transitioned from document-driven operations to a centralized automation control plane based on infrastructure-as-code principles. This transformation initially supported a zero-downtime security rollout across several hundred production systems and was later expanded to automate multi-site data-center build pipelines. This significant shift has greatly reduced our delivery time.

I am here to gain knowledge, assist where possible, and potentially contribute to Ansible in the future.

Best Regards

Hi,

I’m Semaphore UI main developer and maintainer.

I’m working on building the best interface (for both users and AI) to manage Ansible and Terraform.

Our team is constantly exploring and implementing the best solutions for our users.

Join our community: GitHub - semaphoreui/semaphore: Modern UI and powerful API for Ansible, Terraform/OpenTofu/Terragrunt, PowerShell and other DevOps tools. :wink:

Best regards,

Hi

My name is Kalle
Im working as a SRE for a big company. Previously I worked as a IT Support Specialist and IT Systems Administrator.

In my current role and company we found AWX and we will be implementing it to orchestrate and manage our Windows VMs. I’ve just picked up Kubernetes, Rancher, ArgoCD, Git and the whole shebang and will start working on developing AWX for our environments. Since this all is relatively new to me then I’m glad that I found the place where I can ask help ( and ask for help as I SHALL )
If you guys can recommend any links or additional books or something to go through that would make my learning path easier.. then you are welcome to share it. Thank you and glad to meet you all.

All the best

Kalle

Hi everyone, I’m Ajith, a PSE working extensively with Ansible for infrastructure and network automation. My work spans designing and maintaining production‑grade playbooks and roles, developing automation workflows.

I’m particularly interested in deterministic IaC patterns, idempotent network configuration, execution environment hardening, and scalable automation frameworks. I look forward to collaborating with the community on advanced Ansible use cases, performance tuning, and emerging best practices in automation at scale

Hello, I am Ivan.

Ansible was unknown to me until 3 years ago my TL asked me to try it. I didn’t do it, today i regret that choice back then. Nevermind the time has passed and i found myself in the best place here.

I did small contributions to keycloak module so far and looking for more. My home is in Germany and Balkan (ex-Yugoslavia) , so if any peers are interested into meetup please let me know.
Feel free to reach out, i gladly discuss online and offline. Also i would like to get more involved in contributions for other modules over time.
