About Me

Hello! When I grow up I want to be a Zamboni operator. However, in the meantime, I’m an IT Director with more than 20 years of experience in the FinTech world. I love optimizing IT systems and processes to make them more reliable and efficient. I’m particularly excited about using cloud technologies, modernizing older systems, finding the best ways to handle incidents, and embracing DevOps practices.

Key Skills and Experience

  • Cloud Migration: Demonstrated expertise in migrating complex IT environments from on-premise data centers to AWS, utilizing cloud-native technologies and best practices.
  • Legacy System Modernization: Utilizing containerization, serverless architectures, and Kubernetes to modernize legacy systems for improved performance, scalability, and maintainability.
  • Observability and Monitoring: Experience implementing monitoring solutions and developing dashboards to gain insight into system performance and proactively identify issues.
  • Batch Workflow Management: Proven ability to implement and manage enterprise job schedulers to optimize batch processing and improve efficiency.
  • Incident Management: Developed and implemented standardized workflows and playbooks for incident management to ensure timely and effective responses.
  • DevOps and CI/CD: In-depth knowledge of DevOps principles and practices, with a strong focus on building and maintaining efficient continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines to support the delivery of code and infrastructure.
  • Automation: Dedicated to automating routine tasks and processes to enhance efficiency, minimize errors, and allocate resources for strategic initiatives.

Hot Takes

  • Die Hard is both a Christmas film and a reboot of Alien, told from the perspective of the Xenomorph.
  • Dragons, with six limbs, the ability to shoot explosive chemicals (bombardier beetle), and an exoskeleton, are more closely related to insects than lizards.
  • The Truman Show was a prequel to The Matrix.
  • I didn’t ask how big the room is. I cast fireball.

Things I Am Terrible At

  • Making coffee (I can drink it like a pro, though)
  • Remembering names (sorry, it’s not personal)
  • Keeping plants alive
