EMPLOYMENT BACKGROUND
Senior OS and Infrastructure Engineer -- Wells-Fargo, Minneapolis, MN (8/2013 - 9/2023)
Wrote scripts to export data from Service Now to SharePoint as part of a project to automate updating of the WebATM team calendar. Monitored other web-based applications (Netcool, Splunk, BigPanda, AppDynamics) for alerts and notified the appropriate groups and individuals when needed.
As a member of the SSG-Unix team at Wells-Fargo I wrote and maintained shell scripts (bash, ksh, Python) for management and distribution of Wells-Fargo's teller software packages in a version control environment using CVS and Subversion, running under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5/6. Wrote and distributed operating system update/upgrade packages to 6000+ servers using RedHat Package Manager (RPM). Provisioned Linux-based virtual machines using Vmware/VSphere. Configured and maintained web-based patch tracking of remote Linux servers. Assisted field technicians in troubleshooting Linux server hardware and software issues. Managed Vendor Certification Lab in Minneapolis for testing of hardware and software solutions. Management and support of servers in Wells-Fargo branch offices using HP iLO management system.
Note:
I left Wells-Fargo as a result of a company-wide layoff in September 2023. Since then I have provided care for an elderly family member, which explains the recent gap in my work history. That situation has stabilized and I am now available for full time employment.
