Wells Fargo - Technology Manager 3 Aug 2009 to Apr 2016

Distributive Systems Specialized Maintenance Unix/Windows Support

Note: Promotion from Unix Engineer Team Lead to TM3 position in August, 2009.

Description: Manage a team of Windows Operating Systems Engineers supporting the most complex and sensitive distributive application environments at Wells Fargo. I am a liaison for Unix/Windows hardware support for high touch/high level critical application/server build and support management within the Distributed Systems Operations (DSO) organization.

Line of Business Support for Unix/Windows Server environments:

Wells Fargo Wealth Investment Management (WIM/Advisors), Corporate, Lending, Mortgage and Retail

Application Eco-Systems Support: Brokerage Data Warehouse, Wystar, CashVault, ERMT, CTT, BBG, Stratus, Lending Core, DAN, GL and Finance, QRM

Accomplishments:

Setting the tone for high level support…

Setup and carried out “white glove treatment” server level support for critical Unix/Windows server/applications requiring special attention due to the complexity of the line of business environment creating a more succinct coalition of support for line of business needs.

Training and cultivating relationships...

I have represented what it means to be “ONE TEAM” to his engineers and peers as I have worked to help cultivate the relationships between our US and Global based teams. These efforts have increased the trust between our groups and have made the “ONE TEAM” picture more clear for our corporate partners.

Break-Fix Rebuild Server (BFRS) Team Manager.

Setup and manage Server Rebuild Center of Excellence

This role was to address servers that had non-recoverable issues and quickly rebuild the server working with the application and database subject matter experts (SMEs) to restore the server back to its original state within a very short period of time. Through new policies and procedures I had invoked, my Break-Fix Rebuild Server (BFRS) Team is now building out special servers 5 times faster than the Wells Fargo Server Build factory for new server builds specifically for special built servers. So, new server build time to service was reduced dramatically.

Proactive management on critical eco-system environments…

Wells Fargo Wealth Investment Management (WIM)/ Advisors…

The Wells Fargo Brokerage Data Warehouse (BDW) environment is extremely important providing all Financial Advisors reporting and metrics for decisions on daily trades. So, billions of dollars are on the line when this environment is not available. With processes, procedures and monitoring that I have put in place, we have the BDW hardware environment reviewed and are already working on the issue before the line of business management or application support team are aware there is an issue. Since then, this process has been distributed to all RS6000 environment LPARs for each of the interfacing application servers across the BDW footprint.

Managed in the Wells Fargo Advisors Brokerage Data Warehouse (BDW) hardware refresh project assisting with the overall project architecture and design, as well as resource and staffing and staff balancing for the overall project. Goal achieved was to ensuring BDW hardware environment resiliency as well as overall team resiliency with ensuring the balance of work load across a large pool of engineers.

Wachovia Securities/Wells Fargo May 2006 to Sept 2008

UNIX Systems Support Analyst 5/Technical Lead

*Note: Promotion to Technical Lead position in May 2006.

Description: Managed/Lead a team of technical engineers supporting Wachovia Securities Brokerage Data Warehouse (BDW) environment.

Accomplishments:

Project Lead for transition of the Brokerage Data Warehouse (BDW) clustered environment servers/applications from the IBM RS6000 P690 to RS6000 P595 resulting in the ability for the environment to scale. This refresh also consisted of new special layout for BDW LPAR environments using IBM’s Balance Control Unit methodology. I had also participated in the successful installation/configuration of EMC DASD in a shared-nothing environment providing maximum throughput and capacity for the BDW environment. End result was that we were able to handle 5 times the capacity/throughput compared to the P690 clustered environment server LPARs yielding much faster run times.

Technical Refresh Lead for Brokerage Data Warehouse (BDW) working as liaison and design coordinator converting P690 Regatta RS6000 environment to IBM P595 clustered partitioned environment. I had used IBM’s unique Balanced Control Unit (BCU) tuning technique to ring out the most possible capacity/throughput that this environment could offer. End result was that we were able to handle 5 times the capacity/throughput compared to the P690 clustered environment server LPARs yielding much faster run times.

Due to Sarbanes-Oxley ruling, I had written a system using korn shell to automate promotion of scripts, sqls and control files to production moves to boost productivity producing audit trails. Time savings alone of 3 hours a day compared to manual processes.

Wrote and developed “First Alert” system monitoring scripts identified issues and change to the environment paging out the Primary, Secondary and on-call SAs when issues are incurred. These scripts proved to be invaluable and were eventually implemented across the complete RS6000 P595 LPAR footprint.

Wachovia Securities - Systems Support Analyst 4 Nov 2004 to May 2006

UNIX Cloud Server Support

Description: UNIX Systems Hardware Support for Wachovia Securities supporting Unix Cloud server environments and applications (Autosys, MQ Series, TSM Backup Solution, DB2 v/8 and Oracle 10g). Responsibility to maintain multiple IBM RS6000 Frames supporting partitioned LPARS for each aspect of this business running DB2 and Oracle 10g Databases running on AIX 5.2. I had worked as primary SA on a large Oracle 10g Database system and support all associated applications. I had also functioned as the secondary SA on the Brokerage Data Warehouse P690 LPARS.

LPAR server buildouts, upgrades, patching and firmware.

Accomplishments:

The Brokerage Data Warehouse P690 environment had been cannibalized by previous system administrators to make the AIX operating system look like System 5. All hardware and AIX operating systems upgrades created havoc and broke the environment. I and my team worked to correct this issue by porting applications/databases to new supportable P690 partitions allowing applications to run on a more stable environment. This work forged the change allowing standard operating system upgrades to occur positioning our customer for future technical refreshes.

Implemented and maintained new refresh installation and deployment and support of EMC Array DASD on P690 server partitions.
