Howdy all!

After almost a decade at my last company I find myself on the hunt for a new adventure due to position elimination in a restructure. I worked for an entirely remote software company on the operations/infrastructure side of the engineering org.

During my tenure I played a critical leadership role (Director level) in transforming technology and processes into a state-of-the-art AWS cloud solution. The strategic roadmap we built and tactical execution resulted in achieving 99.9% uptime(up from 90%), improving to a 95% change success rate (up from 60%), and enabling 300% customer growth for a Global Platform handling 329 million orders a month, securely processing over $1.5 Billion in credit card transactions via 550 ecommerce sites annually, and protecting the data of 217 million constituents.

I have had as many as 18 remote direct reports spread across 3 different countries. I have also managed 3 team managers/leads. I've led major programs including migrating datacenter operations to AWS, automating Application Deployment, and building ITSM practices. I have AWS and ITILv4 certifications and am working through additional certifications as I look for a new position.

I am interested in opportunities that allow me to leverage my expertise in ITSM, cloud, and DevOps to drive meaningful business transformations. I am particularly passionate about roles that not only demand strategic and operational leadership but also offer the chance to mentor and grow talent, embodying a culture of excellence and innovation. I am open to in-office, hybrid, or remote. I am located in Dallas and willing to commute around the metroplex for the right role.

I would love to connect with anyone about specific opportunities, or just a general get to know you chat. As I said I'm located in Dallas and happy to buy you a coffee.

(I'll send you a real one as a reply.)

Thanks for reading this far if you have. I look forward to connecting!

Bump. I'm still on the job hunt. If anyone has any leads or is just willing to connect I'd appreciate it!

I've gotten close to an offer with a couple of different companies since I posted but nothing has come through yet.

I am willing to step into an individual contributor role though I haven't been hands-on keyboard everyday in a while.

TIA for any help.

Palo Alto Networks has a facility in Plano and seem to have several positions.



Interesting you mention PA Networks. My childhood friend is a VP there and he called me yesterday after years and we caught up on the old times. He has been asking me to move to the Bay Area.

There used to be a DFW Aggie Business networking group. Does that still exist?

Are you still in the market? Willing to relocate in Texas?

Thanks for bumping. I'm still in the market. Unfortunately I can't relocate. We're tied down to the Dallas area for a number of reasons. I am willing to be hybrid and travel on site to other areas of Texas if there is willingness to work out a schedule that makes sense for everyone. And in general I'm willing to travel.
