• Helping EKS customers with everything from cluster upgrades to scaling machine learning workloads • Creating and maintaining OSS EKS projects such as https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-eks and https://github.com/aws-ia/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints

• Consultation services for AWS cloud infrastructure, infrastructure-as-code, event-driven and serverless architecturesView our open source projects at: • https://github.com/clowdhaus • https://github.com/serverless-delivery (coming soon!)

Irvine, California, Us

• Responsible for the DevOps/cloud engineering team’s quarterly goals and objectives • Implemented cloud infrastructure standards and practices utilized across the organization• Drafted design proposals for migrating to an even-driven architecture using Kafka (AWS MSK), isolated service data access patterns, as well as new standards for configuration and secret management

Irvine, California, Us

• Rebuilt AWS Control Tower implementation, refactoring workloads into discrete accounts and environments• Designed and implemented multi-account, multi-environment network topology to support growth objectives and security requirements established• Established cloud security standards and practices for the organization including compliance monitoring and alerting• Designed and implemented new standards for permissions and access management, removing almost all usage of static credentials, providing teams more autonomy over their individual services, and established credential rotation cadence• Implemented infrastructure-as-code practices, migrating +90% of the infrastructure to be managed by Terraform and Atlantis peer review workflow for a distributed, self-service model• Worked closely with software development teams to educate and implement serverless best practices• Led migration of gitflow to trunk-based, artifact promotion workflow from proposal through implementation

Seattle, Wa, Us

• Led a multi-disciplined team to migrate a global Fortune 500 organization and its 2,800+ servers out of 28 data centers into AWS• Led design and implementation of version 2 of migration plan and strategy with customer leadership team• Implemented Terraform infrastructure-as-code standards and practices scaled across 500+ repositories and multiple business units/teams globally• Migrated small workload for asset management firm, refactoring workload to utilize serverless and managed service offerings for scalability, reduced cost, and lower management overhead

New York, Ny, Us

• Responsible for overall cloud security posture and asset protection• Designed and implemented serverless cloud infrastructure automatic vulnerability remediation system• Created serverless, multi-party approval framework for cloud infrastructure privileged access management• Established Terraform infrastructure-as-code standards and practices• Led migration of core, backend resources from ECS onto EKS

New York, Us

• Sole individual responsible for global cloud infrastructure that supports a central data lake and several data processing pipelines to power a machine learning platform for advertisement real-time bidding optimization• Created several event-driven, serverless microservices to assist in managing the global cloud infrastructure• Migrated existing infrastructure to be controlled under Terraform as IAC - standardized and aligned environment configurations; reduced monthly cloud spend by 5%• Improved security posture through use of IAM roles/policies, secret management, network segmentation (VPCs, NACLs, security groups), and automated password rotation and credential revocation• Completed AWS EKS cluster proof-of-concept, demonstrating the benefits of artifact promotion through container images instead of direct server build deployments

New York, Ny, Us

• Redesigned ETL workflow to provide stable and robust processing pipelines for consistently providing end users with reliable data stores• Implemented ETL pipelines to extract data from relational database systems, csv flat files, and webpage content• Implemented coding styles and best practices through a CI/CD workflow consisting of static analysis, unit tests, and integration tests• Refactored cloud resources to create a clear separation of workflows between development, staging, and production environments• Introduced the team to git version control, GitHub, and infrastructure-as-code recommended practices

Solon, Oh, Us

• Migrated several on-site hosted databases/datasets and to AWS PostgreSQL database and MongoDB Atlas• Designed and implemented full-stack web application to empower customers to design solutions using Norglide materials and design practices (www.norglidedesign.com)• Consolidated data flat files and several standalone MS Access databases into central data store

Solon, Oh, Us

• Developed enterprise application tools used to create engineering documentation – used by global team• Part of core team that implemented a product data/lifecycle management system for all on-site documentation

New York, Ny, Us

Created several projects ranging from regression analysis of illegal torrent files, digit recognition/classification of numbers in photographs, to natural language processing of resume cosine similarity during a twelve-week intensive data science bootcamp. Worked through a number of problems using data mining, supervised (support vector machines, decision trees, random forests, k-nearest neighbors) and unsupervised (natural language processing, k-means) machine learning estimators, statistical inference, Bayesian statistics, big data processing, and cloud computing.■ Libraries utilized: Python, Scikit-Learn, SciPy, NumPy, Pandas, BeautifulSoup, Selenium, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Apache Hadoop, and Spark

Houston, Texas, Us

• Responsible for designing large aerospace forgings that met customer material property specifications using finite elemental analysis to determine material flow, cavity fill, defect mitigation, material grain size, and avoidance of dead-zone material in the final product• Saved over $300,000 annually through cost reduction efforts with emphasis on material utilization, reduction in operational steps, plus re-work and salvage operations for non-conforming products• Supervised all new product introductions to educate personnel on new parts/processes while responsible for 100+ products across C-17, F-15, F-35, A330/340, A350, 787 aircraft platforms

Thorntown, Indiana, Us

• Responsible for complete project package to take customer request from concept through full volume production of ferrous/non-ferrous cold-formed components – engineering models/drawings, bill of materials, tooling design, process routing, machine selection, and quality documentation• Implemented DEFORM finite elemental analysis into engineering workflow (material flow and tool stress) and led research of specialty coatings and new forming lubricants to extend the life of forming • Led transition from AutoCAD to SolidWorks – established CAD best practices and guidelines, created SolidWorks templates, re-created AutoCAD drawings in SolidWorks, and trained colleagues

Us

Tasked with troubleshooting equipment failures in order to provide short/long-term solutions and design/implement improvements to replace failure prone equipment in the production line.■ Researched and led demonstration/implementation of new tools, equipment, and design changes for improved operator ergonomics and efficiency■ Trained on-site in PLC programming, machine code programming, press controls, as well as automation sequencing for inline stamping/forming presses
