What I'm building

Live products link out. Private builds run behind sign-in or on internal infrastructure, so they're described here instead.

Experience

10+ years from Tier 2 support to AI engineering

1. Senior AI Engineer

   Navient

   Jan 2024 – Present · Remote / Herndon, VA
   • Partnered with business and product teams to modernize enterprise data pipelines: automated document ingestion, semantic chunking, pgvector embeddings (1536-dim), hybrid retrieval (tsvector + vector), and strict source grounding, deploying IAM- and RLS-governed AI agents on AWS.
   • Built grounded enterprise RAG over Confluence runbooks, Jira ticket histories, and PostgreSQL operational records, with Python evaluation harnesses (pytest, LLM-as-a-judge logic guards, self-healing validation loops) to reduce hallucinations.
   • Engineered full-stack agentic apps with Next.js, React, TypeScript, REST/GraphQL/WebSocket APIs, and AWS, including short- and long-term agent memory, Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool connectors, and multi-hop RAG over Pinecone and PostgreSQL.
   • Built deterministic LLM workflows in TypeScript, Node.js, and Python with strict JSON-schema tool calling across Ingestion, Reasoning, and Verifier agents, human-in-the-loop approval gates, and streaming web interfaces.
   • Migrated scheduled agent routines to deterministic Python (APScheduler/systemd) with mount-namespace dry-run harnesses, RouteLLM model routing, daily token budget caps, and JSONL usage ledgers.
   • Built cross-account CI/CD with GitHub Actions, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and Terraform, and moved a compromised legacy Joomla site to a secure S3 + CloudFront static/edge architecture.
   • Supported containerized Python/Node.js AI services on Docker, administered hybrid Windows and RHEL/Ubuntu systems across VMware and AWS, remediated WorkSpaces vulnerabilities, and enforced SOX, PCI, and NIST 800-171 controls with Active Directory, SSSD, and RBAC.

2. Windows & VMware Systems Administrator

   Rotech

   Mar 2023 – Jan 2024 · Orlando, FL
   • Administered hybrid Windows Server and Linux infrastructure on VMware ESXi 7.0 hosts, maintained VM templates, managed Active Directory Group Policy, and troubleshot VMware Horizon Cloud Connector issues.
   • Wrote PowerShell and Ansible playbooks for server hardening, user provisioning, BigFix removal, and routine admin automation, reducing manual ticket handling.
   • Hardened servers against DISA STIG and CIS benchmarks and set up systemd/service recovery scripts so applications came back automatically after monthly patching.
   • Deployed secure SFTP and SMB/Samba file transfer services, tuned performance, and resolved DNS, DHCP, and network connectivity issues.

3. Windows & Infrastructure Systems Administrator

   Highmark

   Sep 2017 – Mar 2023 · Remote / Pittsburgh, PA
   • Built a PowerShell/Bash utility that updates and recovers Oracle JDBC connection strings and app configurations, turning a long manual process into a near-instant one across multiple applications and environments.
   • Managed the full lifecycle of Windows Server and RHEL systems across VMware vSphere/vCenter, bare metal, and AWS: builds, Active Directory, WSUS/SCCM patching, upgrades, backups, and performance tuning.
   • Automated server configuration and repetitive admin work with PowerShell, Ansible Tower, Bash, Git, and GitHub.
   • Configured Active Directory, Group Policy, file permissions, DNS, LDAP, SSL certificates, firewalls, and SFTP.
   • Monitored infrastructure with Dynatrace and vRealize Operations, analyzed logs, and took part in production on-call and incident response.

4. Systems Support Analyst / Tier 2 Help Desk Specialist

   Stoltenberg Consulting

   Jan 2015 – Sep 2016 · Remote / Bethel Park, PA
   • Provided Tier 2 remote support for Windows workstations, shared drives, OneDrive, Citrix, Cisco AnyConnect VPN, and Microsoft Office 365.
   • Diagnosed hardware, software, identity, and network issues with PowerShell/CMD, RDP, SCCM, and remote-support tools.
   • Managed incidents in ServiceNow within strict SLAs, documented fixes in the knowledge base, and escalated complex issues to the right teams.
   • Supported infrastructure upgrades (Dell servers, Cisco routers and switches), Active Directory user administration, and Azure MFA setup.
