Career Journey

  • Solution Architect - At SUSE, as a Sr. Technology Strategist, I've focused on major hardware and software partners plus embedded solution providers, providing designs and creating, installing and supporting proof-of-concept/production pilots, along with reference architectures, white papers and bench-marking deliverables. During this tenure I have been a steadfast user of openSUSE for my desktop/workstation/laptops.

  • IT Architect - Overlapping below and above, I have been a passionate, contributing member and advocate of the FOSS community. A core focus was Linux device-level enablement of the company's computing platforms and leading an IT Linux initiative to get production services moved onto the Linux platform, with one of the earliest was on SUSE 6.0.

  • Electrical Engineer - I used my formal education, along with mechanical and biomedical slants as a hardware designer, developing hybrid, thickfilm microcircuits, and started automation of design, process and test engineering tasks as well.
