Attended Edward Tufte’s Presenting Data and Information Course.Resourced millions of rows government data automatically to create MySQL and MariaDB databases on Linux and Windows platforms for targeted real estate investing.Implemented private, web-based PHP/SQL interface for querying and exporting actionable real estate lists based on hierarchical property factors.Authored C-suite level presentations introducing and explaining bleeding-edge storage-class memory products for use in big data environments.Administered systems, networks, and performance of x86 Linux servers, Macs, and Windows systems for hardware and software development teams. Included 10GbE fiber and copper-based networks and associated switches.Managed and installed virtual platforms using VMWare, Parallels, and Virtual Box.

Designed, developed and deployed integrated automatic discovery ETL process for hundreds of high-end servers in engineering prototype labs. Created custom programs using task appropriate languages to populate hierarchical directory structure for raw data lake. Framework allowed for additional key data to be extracted from raw data for new custom reports or functions. You can not analyze data you do not have.Notable achievements: ■ Top employee rating 3 of 5 years. Stock options and/or raises every year at Oracle. ■ Learned PHP/Python/R to fuel my vision for greater breadth of standard reports. ■ Designed and implemented auto-discovery function to harness hundreds of systems across diverse geographic locations. Improved methodology year over year. ■ Automatically generated graphics in SVG format using R programming language. ■ Characterized and isolated data corruption using data from disparate logs and internal ASIC information to prove chain of events leading to system fault for 720TB appliance.

Held positions of increasing responsibility and complexity. Team lead for two separate sub-population issues that required tightly coupled actions with broad cross-functional team of experts to shine a light deep into vendor and Sun processes. Performed customer visits around the world as the face of engineering to gather data from impacted customers and provide clear communication on steps being taken to resolve these critical issues.Notable Achievements: ■ Winner of Sun Microsystems Innovation Award for Sun Modular Datacenter (MD) 2008 ■ Alumni of SEED Engineering Mentoring Program open only to highly valued engineers. ■ Promoted three times based on drive to sift through volumes of unstructured data to highlight critical factors driving high-impact field reliability issues. ■ Developed product training for world-wide service organization. Included 120 page training document.

Responsible for all facets of application design from requirements gathering with customer, to design documentation, to contractual Statements of Work, through design and deployment. Applications were developed using the Remedy Action Request System. Included writing interface specifications and programs to align data from non-database locations.Notable Achievements: ■ Promoted within the first year after hire to Senior Applications Engineer. ■ Designed and deployed the first incarnation of the Stanford HelpSU help desk application. ■ Created world wide escalation and paging application for large organization. Application could page anyone in the 110,000 person database with pager.

Responsible for day-to-day operations of engineering development lab and staff. Built, tested, integrated, deployed, repaired and configured equipment and systems as needed. Performed conformance and compliance testing on high-end HPC computers.Notable Achievements: ■ Built and tested the largest-in-the-world SPARC based servers that continuously crossed hardware and software boundaries. ■ Responsible for all compliance and certification testing and supporting documentation for those efforts.

Used and developed hardware and software tools to determine, configure, and test optimal settings for disk and tape sub-systems for the Unix add-on marketplace. Responsible for debug, test of field reported issues as they pertained to product bugs.Notable Achievements: ■ Developed standard template for disk configurations that worked across systems from HP, Sun, IBM, and SGI ■ Improved processes to better scale product integration efforts for better profitability.

Hired, trained, and managed team of inside and outside Technical Support staff that handled call center supported and field systems. Negotiated contracts with vendors and customers to build revenue. Supported systems in all state and U.S territories that had unemployment offices.Notable Achievements: ■ Implemented a MIL-STD-105C system that allowed Artecon to sell products via a Sun sponsored catalog. ■ Reported directly to the president of the company and was second place in the annual Management By Objectives incentive program. ■ Scaled support services during company revenue increase from $8M to $26.5M
