* Oct 2018 - present * Oct 2018 - present
In the role of Senor Systems Architect I provide operational support, research, and development to the Clearcable Standard Operating Environment (SOE) through a DevOps mentality and mentorship of teammates. In this role I have been responsible for several major projects, including the deploment of a self-build hyperconverged hypervisor management system called [Parallel Virtual Cluster](https://github.com/parallelvirtualcluster/pvc) for customer systems to provide greater resilience and reduce administrative burden, the creation of several additional deployment methodologies for the SOE system including support for a wide range of underlying hypervisors, the continued improvement of our monitoring frameworks, and the tight integration of Ansible and Infrastructure-as-code into our team systems administration workflows. This role has also necessitated the development of several tools and utilities, mostly using Python, for internal use, as well as the documentation and training of staff in their use, as well as the continued improvement of existing tools and workflows. In the sub-role as deployment specialist, I have deployed over 10 new customer systems from pre-sales to completion, along with continud day-to-day maintenance of our SOE systems.

* Aug 2016 Sept 2018 * Aug 2016 Sept 2018
In the role of Linux System Administrator I provided management of systems for web application developers within the framework of a DevOps operations service providing consulting advice and managed hosting. Using both an in-house Xen based cloud as well as various remote computing services including AWS, I helped ensure the continued operation of the platform as well as the day-to-day administration of customer systems. Utilizing configuration management with Puppet and Ansible, I provisioned and managed applications serving millions of users and using multiple web development stacks, HTTP servers, and database backends, in addition to various proxying, queueing and caching applications. During late 2017 and 2018 in the role of Technical Lead for Operations, I assisted in the training of new employees and daily technical decisions with a mind for best-practices, and interacted regularly and in-depth with customers using various communication tools.
