What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Virtualization Administrator with over 15 years of experience designing, managing, and optimizing large-scale virtualized environments for banking, finance, government, and IT clients. I specialize in Citrix XenServer and VMware ESXi and have consistently delivered high-availability, scalable infrastructure solutions.
I have led technical teams, mentoring more than 10 junior administrators, and driven operational improvements through automation—creating over 50 custom Bash and PowerShell scripts that reduced costs and manual workload. My hands-on background includes performance tuning, storage integration, P2V/V2V migrations, and disaster recovery planning.
I seek to bring deep technical knowledge and leadership to a senior role where I can continue to improve reliability and efficiency, implement proactive solutions, and contribute to the professional growth of engineering teams.
