About Brandon Pearce

I have focused on multiple emerging IT practices, now primarily on Cloud technology, Identity, Access, and Authorization management, Resource Groups, Compute resource management, VNETs, Gateways, Load Balancers. I’ve begun learning micro-services (Kubernetes, Docker…) and automation (Terraform/ARM/Bicep/AUM) focusing on Full-Stack knowledge acquisition to provide industry leading companies with top teir support throughout the entire technology stack. Automating deployment of resources, synchronization, networking and telecommunications, and authorization to Cloud & Network resources, networking, routing, switching, VPN’s, security, and VPN or SD-WAN. I’ve developed custom automation for tools like Puppet, Chef, Ansible… for integration and management of systems. I’ve also developed custom PowerShell code tools using PSake, Chocolatey… I’ve worked with Solaris Zones, ZFS, NFS and BASH scripting when integrated systems deployment solutions. I’m looking to work as a highly professional IT expert who’s extremely thoughtful and knowledgeable in advanced heterogeneous enterprise systems. My focus is on Cloud deployments (Azure and AWS primarily) and the management of full-stack integrations, implementations, migrations and management of systems, applications, and the budgeting costs for these vendor resources required to govern a modern enterprise environment in this dynamic and revolutionized reality we call the Internet workspace. Proficient with Azure/O365 management along with their legacy On-premises software suite. My DBA management skills have been honed for development, tuning, monitoring, reporting and my knowledge extends products like MySQL [Oracle & MariaDB + Older pre-5.X], MySQL [Oracle], all Windows OSes, Linux Ubuntu/Gentoo/RedHat, Exchange Online (and On-prem), ProofPoint & Barracuda, Imperva + FortiNet Firewalls, F5 Big IP Load Balancers, A10 Load Balancers, Elastic Load Balancing, and PulseSecure vADC vTM’s. My greatest value is being a team leader, senior architect & engineer as I’m able to collaborate on challenging projects in order to hit milestones and meet timelines and budgets with goal driven objectives in multiple areas of IT infrastructure design, for SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, IPaaS, SaSe, IoT, IoC, implementations via IaC and management tools. My skillset also includes Identity Access Management (IAM/SSO), Security, & Networking for Services, Applications, APIs, and integrations with Cloud Hosted micro-services and containerized servers/servlets providing applications with full automation.
