I kept IBM's cloud offerings running and made them better. Built monitoring and infrastructure tooling that actually helped. Did consulting work with internal teams launching new products—helped them avoid the obvious mistakes and get to production faster.

As UK lead I am primarily responsible for ensuring the SaaS offerings continue to operate without issue during the UK business day, leading a team providing operational and customer support and platform improvements. My other responsibilities include providing consultancy to other teams moving to the cloud and working closely with the development teams to ensure a smooth transition from development, through test to production.

I was responsible for leading the development and support of internal web based systems used to provide system inventory and security management for Software Group in the UK. Over this time I have gained significant experience in IT Security and System Management, specifically managing the Linux hosting platform with Apache web servers and MySQL databases.

Worked as part of a team supporting and managing DB2 on zSeries for a number of teams within IBM Hursley.

I built a web based portal to provide users of Tivoli Storage Manager with a self-service interface to check on their backups, alert them if there were problems and manage their account details.
