What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that allows me to leverage my extensive UNIX/Linux expertise while contributing to innovative projects in a collaborative environment.

With over 20 years of extensive experience in UNIX and Linux systems, I have honed my skills in design, installation, migration, and maintenance of open system operating systems and the networks that connect them. As a founder and operational manager of two companies, I have successfully led teams and achieved peak sales exceeding two million per annum. My problem-solving abilities and commitment to continuous skill development have allowed me to thrive in diverse environments.

I take pride in my ability to support hundreds of servers and environments, mastering individual syntax with ease. My operational expertise spans various operating systems, including Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat, and Solaris, as well as a wide range of networking and database technologies. I have developed innovative solutions, such as a custom document scanning system and a satellite communication record mining application, showcasing my ability to integrate technology effectively.

My dedication to providing elite tier 3 expertise is evident in my work with medical, financial, and government sectors, where I have provided 24/7 support to critical systems. I am passionate about knowledge transfer and helping others succeed, and I am always eager to take on new challenges that push the boundaries of my expertise.
