Hi, I'm Mario.
I founded Cirrixo Solutions to give small and mid-size teams the kind of infra, security and engineering support that usually only big companies can afford. I work hands-on — no agency middlemen.
My background is the messy middle of the stack: bare-metal, container orchestration, hardened web apps, game server networks and the edge layer that keeps them alive under load. If your project lives or dies by uptime, that's where I'm useful.
On the engineering side I work daily across TypeScript, React, Node, Postgres, Proxmox and Kubernetes — and reach for C++, Python and SQL when the problem asks for it. On the security side I work offensively too: eJPT and PNPT certified, currently on the road to OSCP.
The short timeline.
- 2021
The starting line
First serious dive into self-hosting, Linux and programming. Built the home lab and started picking up everything I could touch.
- 2022
First VPS gig
Got paid to set up a Minecraft network. Realised infra is what I actually love. Never looked back.
- 2023
Programming kicked in
Doubled down on TypeScript, Python and C++. Started shipping real web apps and tools — not just tinkering.
- 2024
Security focus
Shifted into DDoS mitigation, hardening and offensive security. The 3am incident calls got me hooked on response work.
- 2025
Cirrixo Hosting
Launched my own hosting brand. Built the platform and tooling to host clients myself, end to end.
- Late 2025
eJPT certification
Earned the eLearnSecurity Junior Penetration Tester. First formal validation of the offensive-security side.
- 2026
Cirrixo Solutions + PNPT
Incorporated Cirrixo Solutions SRL. Earned the Practical Network Penetration Tester certification. Going broad and deep at the same time.

Road to OSCP, the managed hosting tier and a wider bench of trusted contractors. The story keeps writing itself.
