About
I have spent my entire career working within the IT space. My passion however is working with UNIX systems, especially the automation of building complex environments. Infrastructure as code is the objective for all the systems I am involved with and do not believe in manual processes. I am a firm believer that DevOps is the future and am embracing the methodology. With over 20 years of experience working with many different UNIX flavours, I feel I have a strong understanding of what is expected and required of a systems engineer. The complexities of creating and managing large high availability clusters is something I am very comfortable with. I consider myself an expert when it comes to troubleshooting problems and always enjoy the challenge of understanding how a system works. The problems I solve drive me to create better solutions without the issues I have identified. My focus is towards modern technology and design which includes cloud (AWS), automation (Puppet) and coding (Ruby) backed by UNIX (Linux). I love building applications that use external APIs and provide self service interfaces to handle frequent tasks required for both the team I work in or other business units. I strive to push the boundaries of what a UNIX system engineer should be doing and quite often end up working in the development space. I have experience building web applications. These are applications that embrace the frontend / backend design communicating over a RESTful API. I have taught myself Ruby, Rails, JavaScript and AngularJS and this creates limitless opportunities in the systems I build. I am extremely enthusiastic about technology and challenging myself and those around me to create better systems. I spent much of my own time teaching myself new skills which often helps me come up with creative solutions in my job.
