Brad Hillis is a HPC Linux Systems Engineer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He possess expertise in disaster recovery, active directory, network administration, network security, troubleshooting and 27 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Brad was without a doubt the life and morale compass of the KDI group. He demonstrated a capacity to learn from everyone, lead the difficult, and entertain everyone. He regularly was in the mix for anything important going on including social, business, and technical. All of this while maintaining a strong devotion to his family (i.e. Work/Life Balance). My time spent with Brad is definitely a highlight at ORNL KDI and I was not happy when he left to help other groups. Despite no longer working on the same team, Brad kept his connections to the KDI team and continued to collaborate on new and previous work. I look forward to working with Brad again and will guard our friendship for as long as I am able. Anyone looking to increase their team will not regret hiring Brad Hillis." and "I first met Brad in late 2014 when he first interviewed for a position with Cellular Sales of Knoxville. It was immediately clear that Brad was an intelligent, personable and knowledgeable person with a great deal of experience. Brad was brought on board in January of 2015 and was nothing but an asset to the company and his teammates from day one to his final day. Brad and myself quickly became close friends. A friendship that developed in the work environment but extended well beyond into non-work life. This friendship continues today. Brad’s loyalty and empathy as a friend and as a person in general knows no bounds. You couldn’t ask for a better person to be a part of your team. Over the two years I worked with Brad he moved from a Systems Administrator to a Systems Engineer and proved his worth every day. His extensive knowledge of virtualization, Active Directory, backup solutions and much more was invaluable in helping guide many high return projects. Brad is driven by success, detail oriented, eager to learn new technologies and always striving to better his current knowledge level. Brad would quickly become an integral part of any companies’ success."
