Professional Experience

Crown Castle

Canonsburg, PA

Senior Cloud Platform Engineer

March 2024 to Present

  • Led the architectural separation of a shared enterprise cloud platform into three independently governed environments during a corporate divestment, defining IAM boundaries, network isolation, data ownership, and migration sequencing to eliminate cross-entity blast radius while maintaining 100% uptime.
  • Directed the implementation of a production-ready agentic AI framework via AWS Bedrock and Lyzr, establishing enterprise-wide standards for LLM guardrails and identity-scoped access.
  • Launched the organization’s first external-facing API platform using Amazon API Gateway, establishing secure patterns for authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and customer integration at scale.
  • Codified a standardized platform requirements and intake framework, transforming ad-hoc infrastructure requests into a predictable, auditable delivery model aligned with security and compliance controls.
  • Founded and led an internal cloud platform enablement program to scale platform knowledge across engineering teams, reducing reliance on the platform team and accelerating adoption of standardized cloud patterns.
  • Established a technical leadership program within the platform organization to formalize mentorship, architectural review, and knowledge sharing, improving delivery consistency across initiatives.

Cloud Platform Engineer III

June 2022 to March 2024

  • Engineered a Zero Trust access architecture via Teleport across 50+ AWS accounts, eliminating 100% of standing IAM credentials. This transition replaced long-lived keys with short-lived certificates, reducing the lateral movement window to 4 hours and automating SOC2 session auditing.
  • Developed a standardized infrastructure delivery platform using Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and policy-as-code (Checkov), enabling teams to self-service compliant infrastructure while preventing non-conformant deployments by default.
  • Led the architectural decision and execution to migrate critical infrastructure and workloads from Azure to AWS, balancing cost, reliability, security posture, and operational maturity.
  • Automated tag validation and governance into CI/CD pipelines to enforce CMDB standards, significantly improving cloud cost attribution, chargeback accuracy, and financial visibility.

Systems Engineer III

July 2020 to June 2022

  • Architected and managed a multi-region Azure environment for a 5,000+ employee enterprise using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform to eliminate 100% of configuration drift and establish repeatable deployment patterns.
  • Defined and enforced CIS and SOX-aligned security controls across hybrid environments, improving audit readiness and reducing compliance risk.
  • Designed enterprise monitoring and alerting strategies to improve reliability and reduce mean time to detection for critical services.
  • Owned complex identity and collaboration infrastructure including Active Directory, Office 365, Exchange Online, and Teams.

Senior Desktop Analyst
Desktop Analyst

May 2018 to July 2020
August 2017 to May 2018

  • Standardized endpoint configurations and deployment pipelines across 6,000+ devices using SCCM, reducing incident rates and improving security posture.
  • Led migration from MDT to SCCM for operating system deployments, simplifying management workflows and eliminating redundant infrastructure.
  • Contributed to the design and operation of the corporate Citrix environment supporting enterprise virtualization needs.
