Senior Systems Engineer · Tempe, Arizona

I am currently working as a Senior Systems Engineer at ASI Communications. I keep production systems running and help move them forward when they need to change.

My technical skills include a proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP, as well as Python, Bash, VB Script, SQL, VMware, and SAN management.

I have experience in leadership, training, and customer service.

experience


Some of the work I do in production: migrations, monitoring, and private cloud.

Critical live database migrations

Planning and running database cutovers on live systems. Uptime and data integrity come first, and I keep a way back if a step does not go as planned.

Legacy app management and migration

Keeping older applications understood and supported, then migrating them when the time is right.

Custom alarm monitoring servers

Installing and managing custom alarm monitoring servers used in licensed security operations.

VMware and SAN private cloud

Installing and managing VMware and SAN private cloud infrastructure for internal compute and storage.
