I secure cloud infrastructure, manage systems, and resolve operational technology issues.
What I'm looking for
I'm delivering systems administration and technical support at Projects Concern Manufacturing, maintaining uptime, endpoint security, network reliability, and cloud service integrations in manufacturing environments. I configure access controls and firewalls, monitor infrastructure health, and apply vulnerability management and incident response practices to protect production systems.
I've also led IT-enabled operations for high-volume sites, managed POS and inventory systems, and directed teams of 20+ staff. Backed by AWS Cloud Practitioner and (ISC)² Certified in Cybersecurity credentials, I bring hands-on experience across AWS, IAM, network security, Linux, compliance, and OT troubleshooting.
