I have a hunger to learn, and to expand my knowledge.
This has led me from a novice in computers to Linux Admin for a large cloud provider, all the way to a DevOps engineer for a world-class Software Development team.
To say that automation and Linux are passions would be to put it mildly.
Architected standardized CI/CD deployment pipelines to automate and govern production releases across engineering teams.
Served as SRE Team Lead, driving reliability initiatives including monitoring strategy, incident management practices, and operational runbooks.
Built automated monitoring and remediation pipelines using Sensu, reducing manual operational intervention and improving mean-time-to-recovery (MTTR).
Introduced infrastructure testing practices using OpsCode Chef, implementing automated validation to ensure configuration correctness and deployment safety.
Mentored and onboarded new SRE and DevOps engineers, establishing operational standards and training on monitoring, alerting, and incident response workflows.
Responded to and led resolution of production incidents within an on-call rotation, performing root cause analysis and implementing long-term reliability improvements.
