@kristipetani
ERP & IT infrastructure specialist optimizing Microsoft Dynamics and SQL Server environments.
What I'm looking for
I am an ERP Systems and IT Infrastructure Specialist with hands-on experience deploying, customizing, and supporting Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Dynamics 365 Business Central across 80+ businesses, combined with deep SQL Server database administration and infrastructure management skills. I deliver high-availability architectures, performance tuning, HA/DR plans, and rapid root-cause troubleshooting to minimize downtime and improve system reliability.
I have led cross-functional projects and large-scale IT rollouts — installing and configuring hundreds of endpoints, redesigning networks to boost performance, and reducing vendor costs through negotiation. I bring practical experience with Hyper-V, VMware, Active Directory, IIS, PowerShell, and monitoring tools, and I am motivated to drive reliable ERP and infrastructure solutions for organizations.
