Infrastructure PlannerSignature Consultants May 2017 - Jul 2018Fort Lauderdale, Fl, Us Supporting the Corporate Properties Group. Working on refreshing building systems and bringing them on the new separate company network to keep external and internal systems separate but keep both on a company network. Creating new ways to bring building system refresh into the “regular path” used by Wells with a large portion of the work being created from scratch since most of it has never been done at Wells Fargo before. Worked with the other planners on the team to identify hardware coming to end of life and initiating the decommissioning of said hardware. Worked in the Test Data Center to install all the new PLCs and test them for scanning to make sure the scans did not break the PLCs. We ended up running new wires under the floors and installing the PLCs in various cabinets in the Test Data Center to get the best feel for how they would work in the real data centers. Taking into account the hot and cold areas of the data center just like we have in the real data centers. -
