Work Experience

Susquehanna International Group, LLP LINUX PLATFORM DEVELOPER May 2016 - Present

Developed a realtime NFS/SMB filer auditing system by tapping traffic from a storage core switch and feeding the data into intrusion detection software (Bro).
Automated the workflow of taking SAN snapshots to duplicate and backup Oracle databases. Orchestrated using Ansible, VMware, and PURE Python APIs.
Contributed to the development of low latency network benchmarks utilizing RDMA to test new CPUs architectures, L1/L2 replication switches, and NVMe storage solutions.
Provided tier 3 support for high frequency trading Linux systems.

Neural Engineering Data Consortium SYSTEM ADMIN - DATA ENTRY - BUDGET COORDINATOR August 2014 - May 2016

Summer 2015 I was brought to head the development of the NEDC computer cluster. This $30k HPC purchase was configured to best suit our research group’s batch processing needs. To go along with the computer cluster we also brought online a locally hosted web/gitlab server to host the research group’s source code/project accomplishments.

Using records pulled from Temple University Hospital’s (TUH) database we put together the largest data corpus of clinical EEGs. The data is to be used to train machine learning software that is used in normal/abnormal EEG classification, and epilepsy detection. All our work is publicly distributed online for other neural engineering researchers to use.

Concurrently I managed the half million in NEDC research funds looking to maximize available expenditure. I worked alongside Temple Engineering’s business manager in keeping track of four different funds contributing to our research.

Analytical Graphics DATABASE DEVELOPMENT INTERN May 2010 - August 2012

In the summer of 2010, I obtained a position to help develop the standard object catalog (database) for use with Systems Tool Kit (STK). I wrote scripts to scrape online and internal databases that formed the basis for the SOC.

During this time STK 10 was being developed and I was one of the first to step through the complete tutorial ensuring its content was comprehensive. As a side project, I worked with other employees in the company to create promotional videography for the new release.

By summer 2012, I also had the chance to assist the IT department routine computer maintenance. The position focused on the building and imaging of new computers.
