Professional Experience
Verizon Data Services, Edison, NJ 2016-2017
Systems Analyst/Information Technology – Led a 15+ member team, supporting 2000+ users and allocating $ 1 million in assets with accountability for accepting stalled projects, reviewing project requirements, collaborating with teams and jumpstarting new processes to address challenges and deliver results across multiple benchmarks. Collaborated with stakeholders to identify solutions. Improved customer trust and confidence. Assisted in retaining customers in a climate with a strong sense of urgency.
Project Accomplishments:
Upgraded and revamped Command & Control tool (C & C) and the Node Insertion Tool (NIT) that are widely used by repair, activation, facility support, groom teams and engineering to improve workflow and processes;
Reduced time and minimized network from self-inflicted disruptions
The C & C tool saved 20 minutes at each WOT and PTD tasks
Reduced repair interval by 15 - 20% on each trouble ticket using C & C
NIT tool improved troubleshooting on ONB fiber rings by engineering/ activations/ repair teams
Network Engineering reported self-inflicted network disruptions were immunized
Facility Support conveyed the realization of significant inroads in terms of time/network protections along with signification time savings on platforms where techs did not use a particular CLI
Coordinated with multiple departments and cross-functional teams: lab, technology, engineering, operations and NAC teams to identify priorities, scheduling, functionality and general support to integrate emerging technologies and solutions
XO Communications, Edison, NJ 2000 - 2016
Technical Project Manager/Process Manager/Business Relations Manager
Managed a portfolio of projects and conferred with the Activations Center to develop and launch the National Processes for EOC acceptance.
Project Accomplishments:
●Collaborated with users and IT Development to automate Ethernet-over-Copper DSO Loop Test and T1 acceptance
●Enhanced TDM T1 testing automation via LEC_DD, WOT, and PTD_DLY tasks which increased efficiency of T1 x-connect automation
●Led initiative to formulate a process to manually restart ASAP automation to increase throughput
●Conferred and worked with the NAC, Repair and NCOG to add additional validations, commands and platforms to Command and Control to minimize and prevent global outages due to human error
●Acted as liaison with IT, engineering and users to create a node insertion tool to add auto-rollback to Spirent commands; added a new platform the ALU-7750 that coincided with the Intercity Ethernet projects; interfaced with groom team on new automation requirements
●Worked with Visio using telecom ICON’s
●Turned up PRI’s employing CCP (Concurrent Call Path)
●SRM – was involved in T1 and DS0 transport SS7 project
●Researched existing technologies along with emerging innovations to create systems that protected the global platform, integrated controls and improved processes that provided the infrastructure to continuous process improvement across multiple areas
