I'm probably not the typical resource someone may scour HN for, but it can't hurt to throw my hat in the ring!

I'm a senior-level IT Infrastructure Engineer. I've spent the past 8 or so years helping startups transform their early-stage IT, slapped together with duct tape and glue, into enterprise-grade scalable systems and processes. I've seen startups through numerous SOCII and ISO 27001 audits, penetration tests, NIST 800-171 assessments, and FINRA audits. I've migrated on-premises workloads in the cloud, built a businesses entire IT infrastructure (office networking gear excluded) to the cloud. I've even worked hand-in-hand with DevOps teams to improve and troubleshoot CI, engineering access to backend services, and IAM architecture. And I loved every minute of it.

That's why I'm posting here on HN; I like a fast-paced environment where I can re-imagine how things are done!

My linked resume is for leadership, as I've recently made that shift, but nearly my whole career is as an IC and my accomplishments in my resume are overwhelmingly accomplished as an IC or small team lead. I'm happy to be an IC again for the right opportunity.
