Tell us about yourself; what’s your professional background?
My background is Network Engineering that transitioned to the cloud with DevOps, SRE and Solutions Architecture. I am very passionate of anything cloud and automation and how software practices can be leveraged to produce Infrastructure as Code. I particularly enjoy working with developers to get source control repositories prepped with code and pipelines and seeing an idea come to life to solve product or services for business objectives.
What do you like about working with Harvey Nash USA?
Harvey Nash is a great place to work. Honestly, they have HR related topics and processes very well organized from the interview phase all the way down to onboarding, contract management and health insurance not only from the web applications provided but the people behind them. Tom W. and the rest of the team are incredible. They follow up send you emails and call you just to make sure everything is going ok. You don't find many companies that do this. They genuinely care about you...
