Also known as: tskirvin

I am a Linux system administrator with a focus on large-scale automation of diverse environments, both customer-based (e.g. many faculty with diverse interests) and technology-based (physical vs virtual vs cloud computing environments; HPC and research computing). My background is in research and higher education, with perspectives from both the individual research group and central administration. I am well-versed in industry best-practices regarding project management, configuration management, and change control; in combination with my technical skills, I have enabled my clients to effectively and efficiently build, deploy, and manage significant server and cluster environments. I often work as a "bridge" between the scientists and developers doing the day-to-day science/coding, and the underlying business support units supporting those units. I can readily "translate" between science-speak, business-speak, and IT-speak. Specialties research and high performance computing; server automation, including integrating multiple automation tools; practical project management, from architecture to long-term maintenance; understanding of the grant-writing process; process documentation; development of server automation tools; mentoring of clients, colleagues, and supervisors.
