Sitting on the Operations team, providing production and pre-production support to a large team of developers. Acting as a SME on Automation and Deployment with Chef, Full Stack and Application Monitoring, and just about anything else that comes up, I work closely with the Director of Operations, the rest of the Ops team and Engineering team leads to help define process, architecture, automation and build logic, striving to make everyone's life easier :)Major Projects include:- A ground up redesign of our monitoring and alerting systems, with a focus on reducing alert burn out and properly capturing attention to minimize unnecessary distractions. At the same time, striving to provide a correlation system that stacks key events and metrics in an easy to use and visually appealing format.- Build out an Indexing and aggregation cluster using Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana that aims to index over 1 Billion Documents per day in near real time (<10s delay). The goal is to provide immediate visibility into code changes as they are pushed out into the wild, at the same time providing access to data that previously took weeks to prepare.

As part of the IT Operations team, I managed and maintained an internal server infrastructure that is 99% virtualized using VMware ESX and ESXi internally and Amazon Web Services for Production and Stage.IT Ops participates in the flow of development versions from a Linux stage environment to the Production Linux environment in the Amazon Cloud. Leveraging open source solutions for Monitoring (Nagios, Graphite, Collectd, jmxtrans, graylog2, logster and Munin), Deployment and Configuration Management (Puppet), Database, Web Apps and out of the box Shell/Python/Ruby scripts for management as well as custom written scripts in Python, Ruby or Bash for just about any purpose. I spearheaded and implemented the re-design of our internal and external monitoring systems (The end result was a real time view instead of a 5 minute offset), our internal build systems (I moved us from a hybrid TeamCity/Jenkins Build environment to a full Jenkins Continuous Integration environment with numerous build slaves). I furthered the 'Environment per department' philosophy, ensuring that everyone from Research to Dev to QA has a fully functional environment to develop against and test against.I supported a variety of end user Operating Systems including various versions of Linux, Mac and Windows along with Commercial and Open Source Productivity software and communication applications ensuring consistent functionality in an Agile Development environment.Projects included: - Migrating from SVN to GIT with an internal Gitorious Server. - Replacing the existing Release/Deployment process/code with a more streamlined, easier to extend version. This change allowed for sub-minute deployment times of the corporate website and reduced the time to spin up new back end servers from hours to under 10 minutes.

Network AdministratorI deployed and managed a Mixed environment of:Windows 2008/2003 with XP and Windows 7 ClientsOur environment included infrastructure and End user technologies such as:Exchange 2007SQL 2000/2008BES 5Great Plains 9 and 10GoldmineSolidworks and AutoCADCisco CUCM and Unity VMware VShere 4.1The new deployment allowed for a fresh design of the server room and cooling as well as the entire network structure itself, adding Project management, Network and Directory Architecture and Storage architecture to my daily duties. This was a ground up project with 99% hardware replacement including Storage by DataDomain and Equallogic, Data center networking equipment and VoIP servers from Cisco as well as HP Blades and Servers.
