Used SRE principles of eliminating toil to improve reliability and operational efficiency of the global bank network through the use of automation. Worked with technologies and vendors including Django, Gunicorn/Uvicorn, Web Sockets, React, Python, Jenkins (CI/CD), Pytest, Itential, asyncio, NGINX, Cisco, Arista, F5, Git, Bitbucket, Jira, Confluence, and Forward Networks. Reduced time to MTTR for specific issues by 60%.✔ Created an Itential pre-/post-check workflow to validate cables were correctly installed after swapping equipment. Resulted in a 70% time savings for cable validation.✔ Formulated an Itential workflow to gather diagnostic data for packet loss alerts from NNMi. Network engineers were able to receive the relevant data 50-70% faster than performing the tasks manually.✔ Helped develop and deploy Django web application to perform packet captures on devices from multiple vendors. Web application allowed non-SMEs to perform packet captures across F5, Cisco, and Arista devices without having to know the CLI commands. Application was deployed using Nginx and Gunicorn/Uvicorn.✔ Followed best practices for software development, including 80%+ test coverage for codebase.✔ Developed Ansible playbooks to deploy code to production.✔ Created Python script to validate F5 proxies were appropriately blocking or allowing sites as expected. Script tested HTTP response codes for authenticated users against global load balancer inventory. Captured data that allowed engineers to troubleshoot prior to customer impact.✔ Used Python script to extract ARP table data from Forward Networks. ARP data was used as part of a script to validate physical cable changes were performed correctly by confirming the same devices.

Part of the Cybersecurity Technology Solutions team responsible for protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of company information and computing networks. Responsible for supporting and enhancing the Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) solution (Palo Alto XSOAR/Demisto).✔ Integrated Palo Alto XSOAR (Demisto) with SIEM tools such as Splunk.✔ Maintained complex phishing and spam playbooks capable of determining if an email was safe to open. The playbook relied on several layers of checks using multi-purpose security services.✔ Developed IPS/IDS playbooks to enrich security events. Playbook relied on gathering intelligence on the hostname and IP of the threat. The playbook also correlated events and used machine learning to determine if an attack was occurring over a period of time. The playbooks also determined whether a threat was internal or external. A multi-layer design document including, client, business logic, resource access, resource, and utility layers was produced prior to approval and implementation.✔ Developed Python to generate a report of hosts that had not connected to the network within X days. The script integrated with IBM TEM (Tivoli Endpoint Management).✔ Configured Palo Alto XSOAR to use SAML authentication.✔ Assisted in moving Palo Alto XSOAR to AWS.

Provided administration, flow development, implementation, and integration of HP Operations Orchestration software within the IRS network in support of 110,000+ users in 600+ sites. Emphasis on automating operational and deployment processes within the network engineering team utilizing workflows, Python, and Ansible.Network Automation / NetDevOps / SRE✔ Developed HP OO flow to assess the condition of a LAN prior-to and after a VOIP upgrade. The flow extracted data from Cisco switches and routers via the CLI. Programmatic analysis was performed on the extracted data to identify post-implementation configuration and performance issues.✔ Developed workflow to diagnose and troubleshoot port security issues. The diagnoses were added as an incident note in NNMi. Reduced the amount time needed to resolve the issue by over 50%.✔ Developed flow for the helpdesk to automatically troubleshoot client network performance issues. Flow pushed diagnostic PowerShell script to client's computer and collected data. The collected data was then sent to the help desk representative. The flow was capable of determining the users’ location based on IP address. Reduced the time spent troubleshooting network issues by over 60%.✔ Maintained HP OO flow that leverages JavaScript to perform extensive triage on network bandwidth alert. Flow reduced MTTR for bandwidth utilization issues by 70%.✔ Developed flow to ensure the network monitoring and alerting pipeline maintains functionality in the event of an application failure. This would ensure alerts would continue to be produced despite a failed portion of the monitoring pipeline.Cloud Environment✔ Key member of the technology team accountable for spearheading the adoption of cloud technologies. ✔ Leveraged observability tools including Dynatrace and Micro Focus OMi to improve application uptime and awareness of performance-impacting faults.✔ Wrote PowerShell DSC equivalents of Ansible playbooks for evaluative purposes

Hired as part of the team to architect and implement a large HP NNMi installation integrated with uCMDB. The client was migrating from an existing monitoring solution to HP NNMi. The client environment was a large enterprise containing 30,000+ servers and network devices. The client was a hosted-services provider.✔ Architected solution consisting of five RNMs (regional node managers) connected to a single GNM (global node manager). Inventory and event data was configured to flow to from the RNMs to the GNM. GNM integrated with uCMDB for CI data.✔ Worked with network engineers to compile list of subnets for use with UD (Universal Discovery). Configured UD to sweep ranges and discover CIs via SNMP (v1, v2c, v3).✔ Developed Perl script to order and load 700+ MIBs. Script leveraged Net::Dev::Tools::MIB::MIBLoadOrder Perl module to create an ordered list of MIBs. Script reduced the amount of time needed to load MIBs into HP NNMi as manually ordering and loading the MIBs would have taken a significant amount of time.✔ Leveraged HP Server Automation (HPSA) to efficiently manage multiple NNMi servers and maintain consistent configurations.✔ Mapped applications and established dependencies between Infrastructure CIs and Business CIs.✔ Used Atlassian Confluence and Jira to track project and project issues.✔ Integrated NNMi with OMi to populate RTSM.✔ Configured event correlations per client specifications (TBEC, Stream-Based, etc.).
