With an awesome leadership team, solving the enterprise DevOps challenges for Prudential. Our ideas may show up in the vendor products that you use. 👍My teams focus directly on our developer community:* DevSecOps and GRC* Paved Paths* Customer enablementBuilding a DevSecOps platform from scratch and evaluated two dozens SAST, SCA, ASPM tools

* Productionalized, operationalized, and rolled out Wiz in 4 months* Evaluated 14 CSPM/CNAPP products in 5 months

- Currently designed the architecture of a Big Data approach for processing multiple daily batches and neartime data streams.- Implementation of a Continuous Delivery stack. Responsible in setup, configuration, and administration of: * JIRA * Confluence * Bitbucket * Jenkins * SonarQube * Artifactory

- Performing the analysis for systems and support globalization efforts.- Supported the migration and upgrade of Sybase from AIX to Linux. Tuned data caches, resolved proxy table issues, performed regression testing, optimized SQL, and provided differential analysis.- Analyzed and re-factored the group's internal code base resulting in a 70% reduction in size. The generalization of similar functions and modular implementation results in better tested/maintained/understood/documented code.- Managed the relationship and communication with the internal Global Business Technology Group to implement or resolve access control lists, NAS, backups, failover scenarios, reboots, kernel panics, etc.- Researched and identified system changes required for globalization (timezones, text encoding, UTF-8, database support, scheduling).- Provided support in the AIX/POWER migration to RHEL/x86 through design, development, testing, and coordination. Enhanced the framework where needed.- Performed a production search for an ETL package and provided evaluation reviews.- Managed three direct reports.- Established secure communications with various external vendors: MarkIt, MarketAxess, UBI Banca, Sal Op, State Street, BNY Mellon, and Goldman Sachs. Reviewed and standardized team's B2B communications.- Developed a reporting and querying toolkit to increase Help Desk efficiency, better identify issues, and reduce problem resolution times.- Provide team training on server infrastructure, encryption, communication, standardization, and design patterns.

- Initiated the evaluation of Linux. Provided performance benchmarks and sizing recommendations.- Successfully managed the Solaris/SPARC migration to RHEL/x86. Lead our Risk Reporting, Performance Attribution, and Quantitative Modeling teams to completion.- Pushed for increased Open Source Software adoption where beneficial.- Coordinated and assisted in proprietary software contract agreements.- Based on our groups requirements and existing various architectures, initiated the development of a cross-platform, multi-environment software framework. The result was a cohesive environment for development where core functionality are integrated, standardization, and also resulting in better performance.- Designed and established a data warehouse and interface to support Vermilion Reporting Suite used to generate 150+ monthly client reports.- Partnered with our primary data provider to perform FTP TCP packet analysis to identify communication issues.- Implemented an emulated Autosys client through Perl utilizing SOAP calls.- Generated documentation and automated scripts to assist in server setups. Created standards to ensure uniform configuration.- Provided 24/7/365 Help Desk support and management of contingency events impacting our various applications.

- Analyzed and redesigned Structured Finance's Monte-Carlo modelling framework. Designed a load balancer in Perl to manage thousands of processes. The enhanced implementation reduced processing times by 20%, increased robust to reduce manual intervention, and allowed for 24/7 processing.- Optimized Java/SQL generating security attribute feeds to reduce execution time from 2 hours to 5 minutes.- Rebuilt Intex data distribution (20-40GB monthly) framework to improve performance to ensure synchronization.- Managed the S&P downgrade of the US issuer rating. During that weekend, rewrote the entire security ratings process to reduce runtimes from 23 hours to 20 mins.- Researched, documented, and implemented a comprehensive approach to security and issuer ratings. This provides fast lookup and calculations while supporting multiple interpretations of agency ratings.- Provided 24/7/365 Help Desk support of our various systems.

- Developed a .NET Counterparty Risk application in lieu of the 2008 financial crisis. The application extracts data from various feeds to calculate various views of daily counterparty exposures in the event of a default.- Designed and implemented an in-house .NET Client Reporting and Marketing reporting system.- Created a process to generate issuer and security watchlist reports.- Built a tracking tool to assist in New Issue allocation to comply with SEC reporting requirements.- Provided business hours Help Desk support of our group's various applications.

- Implemented a Request For Proposal (RFP) application utilizing Sybase/.NET.- Implement a Asset Under Management (AUM) application utilizing Sybase/.NET.- Built multiple Excel macros and Access databases to support and improve Trade Operations and Reporting.- Implemented system communications with various brokers to support reconciliation feeds.- Coordinated waterfall development releases.

- Provided the support to allow Security Issuer ID centralization with our trade system.- Assisted in the analysis required for system integration to support Credit Default Swap (CDS) trading.- Design a tool to generate Late Trades reports.

- Developed modifications to install high-volume enterprise HBA/RAID controllers for use in consumer systems. This single topic resulted in 6800+ posts and 1.7M views.- Created proof of concept open-backed PCIe adapters. These adapters physically increased the number of possible GPUs in a system. This is an important factor in distributed computing projects such as Folding@Home, BOINC, and BitCoin.

- Brought onboard to assist in the solid-state drives forums.

- Provided best-in-class support of consumer PCs resolving issues covering both hardware and software. Topics covered included motherboards, GPUs, non-standard cooling, overclocking, power supply design, BIOSes, and OS configuration.

- Encouraged the discussion of cutting-edge consumer computer hardware and assisting users requiring help.
