Associate Manager - End User Productivity | Infrastructure & Operations
Maintained all experience and responsibility from my previous title (Associate - End User Productivity) and gained additional expertise with stretch assignments and new platform ownership outlined below
- Subject Matter Expert : Citrix NetScaler
Designed, upgraded, and implemented our Global NetScaler environment to match industry standard best practices for routing, switching, and load balancing of our Virtual Desktop environment. This was a stretch assignment for me and I was challenged to work across towers to communicate requirements of this new platform, learn the new platform, and implement changes and upgrades without compromising our Virtual Desktop environment. Since these changes, NetScaler is one of our most stable platforms in our tower.
