IT Consulting
Small office and home office infrastructure — networking, servers, backup, and the unglamorous question of what happens when it fails. Specified to your budget rather than a template.

XSF Telecom is the consulting practice of a working systems administrator — IT consulting, hardware troubleshooting and repair, Solidity contract auditing, and crypto mining deployments from a single rig to a room full of ASICs. In IT since 2004, in crypto since 2014.

Five things I’m hired for
Different problems, same approach: find out what is actually happening before changing anything, then explain what was wrong.
Hardware Troubleshooting & Repair
Diagnosis on desktops, laptops and workstations. Thermal faults, storage upgrades, failing components, machines that boot to nothing — found, fixed, and explained.
Crypto Mining Consulting
ASIC and GPU deployments at any scale. Hardware selection, power and thermal planning, pool and firmware configuration, and honest maths on whether a build pays.
Smart Contract Auditing
Solidity contract review and Solana development. Reading code for what it actually permits, not what the documentation says it does.
Blockchain Security Research
Independent investigation of network and protocol behaviour, plus published hashrate baselines measured on my own hardware — the reference figures that separate a network problem from a local one.
Why this desk
Three reasons clients pick an independent over a franchise.
Formally trained
A degree in Information Systems, applied daily as a working systems administrator rather than kept on a shelf.
Publicly checkable
The work is published as SerpentX Tech on YouTube. You can watch the exact category of job you are hiring for before you hire it — most consultants can’t offer that.
You learn something
Plenty of shops fix the machine and hand it back without a word. The point here is that you understand what failed and how to avoid it next time.
Have something that isn’t working?
Tell me what the machine or the network is doing, what changed before it started, and what you have already tried. That is usually enough to say whether it is a quick fix or a real project.
