“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer with hands-on production experience across Power8/Power9 frames, VIOS and HMC, including resolving a production LPAR outage caused by vFC mapping issues. Has operated PowerHA clusters for critical finance workloads, running quarterly failover tests and handling an unplanned failover triggered by a network adapter failure, then improving resilience with redundancy and monitoring automation.”

“IBM Power/AIX infrastructure engineer who has owned a sizable production estate (50 Power servers / ~200 LPARs) spanning VIOS/HMC, SAN/NFS, and PowerHA clusters. Demonstrates strong incident leadership (LPAR outage + split-brain recovery) and a process-improvement mindset with measurable reductions in recurrence/MTTR, while also bringing modern DevOps/IaC experience (Jenkins, ArgoCD, Terraform, security scanning, canary/blue-green).”

“LLM/RAG practitioner building clinician-facing AI search and Q&A inside EHR workflows, focused on trust, latency, and safety (grounded answers with citations, PHI controls, encryption/audit logs). Demonstrated real-time incident response for production LLM systems (e.g., fixing a metadata-filter deployment regression to prevent irrelevant results/cross-patient leakage) and strong demo/enablement skills for mixed technical and clinical stakeholders; also shipped a multi-model RAG tool at OrbeX Labs with upload/search/audit features for day-to-day adoption.”
