- Built, configured, and installed firewall clusters for manufacturing, warehouse, PCI, and Internet-facing environments- Researched and remediated vulnerabilities of all severity levels for firewalls, IDS/IPS sensors, and their respective management platforms- Built and configured new IDS/IPS sensors for both internal and external environments. Developed the access control policies, intrusion policies, and variable sets for the new sensors based on traffic flows and performed tuning updates as necessary- Developed a Python script to extract host OS/vulnerability information from the vulnerability management platform and import it into the IPS/IDS management software- Created Splunk dashboards to enable all support and engineering teams to intuitively search through firewall and network ACL logs for easy troubleshooting and validation

- Co-designed and implemented a new enterprise systems monitoring solution to replace CA Unicenter, which was end of life, using CA UIM and Microsoft SCOM. Recommended moving from a branch office monitoring architecture to a centralized one, resulting in significant savings in terms of licensing, support, and infrastructure costs. Project was nominated for and won “Best Team Effort” at the annual IS department awards- Developed PowerShell service to retrieve all alerts from Microsoft SCOM and import them into CA UIM. Created a XML filtering engine, enabling administrators to filter using regular expressions. This script processes over 8,000 alerts per day, routes them to their respective help desks, and was nominated for “Most Creative Solution” at the annual IS department awards- Architected and led the creation of a proof of concept/pilot environment for Exchange Online/Office 365- Designed and implemented a new Exchange e-mail backup system using EMC Avamar to store over eight terabytes of data per day. Reduced backup times from eight hours to two, achieved a 98% data de-duplication rate, and implemented granular level restore, which allows the restoration of single items to a mailbox- Created a PowerShell script to convert Unicenter log watcher configuration files to the XML format used by the CA UIM log monitor software. Eliminated the need to manually enter over 1,000 positive and negative text patterns for over 60 unique server configuration files

- Led a project to deploy a new enterprise file transfer tool (Axway CFT) to all retail stores. Integrated the tool into our new store build process and successfully removed the old software on an aggressive timeline to meet contractual obligations- Planned, developed, and deployed a lifecycle effort of over 1,000 end-of-life printers in approximately 700 stores- Managed the daily job schedule for over 1,000 stores using CA Workload Manager. Created and removed jobs as requested by the application and engineering teams, deployed them to the lab environment for testing, and staged them for production deployment- Configured and deployed all systems monitoring changes in the retail environment using CA Unicenter. Worked with application and engineering teams to create and test all alerting changes, and the retail call center to update knowledge articles as necessary
