Owner And Executive Devops Consultant
CurrentI established my own full-time business in 2007. Things started out well and then became a bit rocky a couple of years later during the 2008–2009 economic crisis. To avoid shutting down the business, I took a part-time job at Costco and used my own personal earnings and savings to pay employees and to keep us afloat. After the economic crisis passed, business picked up and today we are experiencing explosive growth. We currently have offices in 3 countries (the U.S., France, and the Netherlands), serve millions of clients across 170+ nations, and offer web and server hosting services. In my role as Owner, I select and develop new employees, lead our staff, and create/execute company strategy.Performance Highlights:-Automated all business functions (e.g., marketing, transactions, etc.) of company such that we offer server hosting services in manner that does not require customers to contact/interact with my employees or myself.-Provided hosting services to hundreds of millions of clients simultaneously while averting major capacity problems and keeping uptime to almost 100% for 13+ years.-Hosted tens of thousands of servers; currently one of the largest hosting organizations worldwide.
