Richard J. is a Storage System Engineer at Bechtel Corporation. He possess expertise in virtualization, data center, linux, unix, vmware esx and 14 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "What really sets Richard apart is the positive energy he radiates and is always willing to jump in and help when I've come to him for assistance on a customer escalation, in addition to his daily responsibilities of building out customer implementations. I can attest to his expertise in building out EMC and NetApp storage arrays and optimize disk tiering and integrating into the vSphere clustered environments. If he doesn't know the answer, he's always been eager to go research it for me or try and figure it out. Richard also is very proactive, if he sees opportunities to optimize vSphere, ESX, or EMC SAN implementation when tasked to just upgrade, he'll approach me to discuss any and all optimizations - customers have really appreciated the effort on quarterly reviews. He writes very concise maintenance and deployment plans and very effective in communicating issues and outcomes both internally as well as with the customers directly. Richard is a VERY Senior Systems and SAN Storage Engineer, and in my opinion an expert in VMware VSphere clustered server environments, vCenter to build out everything needed in ESX to ensure a well designed, robust, virtualized environment."
