What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own EUC/VDI operations end-to-end—running Azure AVD, Citrix, and VMware—using automation and proactive monitoring to meet SLAs, reduce incidents, and improve user experience continuously.

I’m a Senior Virtualization & Cloud Infrastructure Engineer with 9+ years of experience managing enterprise Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Cloud Infrastructure, and End User Computing (EUC) environments. I bring hands-on expertise in Microsoft Azure and Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Citrix XenDesktop/XenApp, and VMware Horizon with VMware vSphere/ESXi administration.

I support large-scale platforms—like 1,000+ user AVD and highly available VDI—through strong L2/L3 troubleshooting, patching, monitoring, and performance optimization. I’ve achieved 98%+ SLA compliance, reduced recurring performance incidents by ~30% with ControlUp DEX monitoring, and cut manual effort by ~40% through PowerShell automation, while collaborating across cloud, infrastructure, networking, and application teams to improve stability with minimal downtime.
