How I helped this company...- By implementing an private cloud system (openstack) and moving workloads off of AWS saving the company 1+ million dollars a year- I identified a lack of KPI in the system and was able to put together a monitoring system in the first 100 days to deliver indicators that had a positive effect on the infrastructure- Used KPI to identify weak spots in their web farm, then was able to architect and design a web farm that delivered reliability and durability- Provided automation that minimized everyday tasks and their impact on IT operations, this cut down on the amount of daily fires that were occuring at the company- Developed processes that solved company wide workflow issues inside their technology stack
