MetalWest
May 2005 - August 2005 Sr. Systems Engineer Brighton, CO
3 Month contract position to take over for the Sr SysAdmin while he went on vacation.

National Center for Atmospheric Research
August 1998 - April 2005 Sr. System Administrator Boulder, CO
I was the lead system administrator with three subordinates. I was responsible for 570+ server and desktop Debian linux and a few windows systems. I ported weather modeling software from SGI to Linux and designed and build NCAR's first Linux cluster. What started as a pet project ended up being a huge windfall for the entire department. When I left, I was admining over 500 nodes worth of linux clusters for projects all over our department. Aspen Systems (linux cluster manufacturer in Golden) even took my cluster design and built on it for their own design(s). Customers were US Army test ranges, so security was a very large consideration and I had to defend many security audits with all of my designs and systems.
