About

I’m Matt Gloudemans — a senior network engineer and architect with over 20 years of experience designing, building, and running enterprise-grade networks. My focus is on datacenter and cloud infrastructure, automation, and security.
I spend most of my time modernizing datacenter infrastructure and building multi-tenant cloud and network solutions. I’ve also been developing AI-augmented engineering workflows — custom integrations that let you interact with network infrastructure through natural language, speeding up operations and troubleshooting.
What I work with
- Datacenter EVPN/VXLAN CLOS fabrics (Juniper)
- ISP core infrastructure and BGP routing
- Cloud networking and VMware NSX
- Network security and firewalling
- Automation, scripting, and AI-assisted engineering
- Solution architecture and pre-sales engineering
I’m certified across Juniper, VMware, and Cisco, and I combine deep technical knowledge with a pragmatic approach to problem-solving.
What this site is
This is where I document projects, write-ups, and things I’ve figured out along the way — EVPN designs, automation tooling, homelab experiments, and whatever else I’m building. If it took me more than an hour to get working, it probably ends up here.
