I have worked in an operational capacity for small and large/global teams, serving infrastructure on multiple continents. I have played a principal role in delivering and developing stable web applications and their database infrastructure from the ground floor. I have integrated web applications with internal, backend systems and databases as well as third party software vendors. I have created new systems processes and automation to improve upon existing business technology goals and projects.
I have been in charge of reviewing, researching and purchasing new software and hardware for development platforms as well as for staff end users. I have integrated, managed and deployed source control where there was none. And I have taken part in writing proposals, producing infrastructure diagrams, process documentation, and SOWs for clients. I have been involved with interviewing and hiring staff, mentoring / consulting developers, and training Cloud Engineers.
Currently, I am leading an Ops team in charge of all Production environments in Azure. Terraform and Azure DevOps in our employ.
