Veteran Systems Engineer with strong Linux skills. I am especially good at fixing things and writing shell scripts in bash or perl or python. Good exposure to using AI as problem solver, generating code, and bringing AI to live in in or near the system (edge computing). My cloud and automation skills are also strong with many datacenter migration projects to AWS under my belt. Also converting environments to use Puppet or SALT for configuration management and in spinning up instances in the cloud. I can do everything from Server and web app/ops to designing DR and cloud migrations and implementing them. I truly enjoy fixing things and helping if you need a Systems person I will not let you down.
