Datacenter Storage Migrations
A 13+ month project involving migration of production SAN data and storage infrastructure. This included NetApp clusters, volumes, NFS and CIFS shares, LIFS, SVMs, Export Policies, and more. Leveraged rsync and AWS to reduce the amount of data needing to be migrated from site to site.
Tech: ONTAP, rsync, NFS, CIFS, SAN, Scripting, SaltStack, AIQUM, Nagios, Icinga2
- Performed production migrations of prod data between sites.
- Seeded data payloads between volumes ahead of time to automate cut-overs.
- Manage NAS, Scripting, and Automation Linux servers in planning and executing production cut-overs.
Proxmox Homelab Automation
Automates provisioning and lifecycle management of VMs on a Proxmox cluster using Bash scripts and YAML configurations.
Tech: Bash, Proxmox API, YAML
- Creates and networks new VMs from predefined templates
- Integrates with Proxmox API for lightweight orchestration
- Logs provisioning events and task output for auditing
GitHub Pages Portfolio
A custom neon-themed static site built with Jekyll and GitHub Actions for automated CI/CD deployment. Designed to showcase my IT engineering projects, experience, and technical growth.
Tech: Jekyll, GitHub Actions, HTML/CSS
- Custom glowing CSS aesthetic built from scratch
- Deployed automatically through GitHub Actions
- Optimized for clean navigation and responsive design
IoT Water Pump Controller
A Raspberry Pi–based IoT controller that manages a water pump via Wi-Fi and scheduled cron jobs. The goal is to build a smart automation layer for local environmental control.
Tech: Raspberry Pi, Python, Cron, MQTT
- Wi-Fi controlled GPIO relay for water pump
- Scheduled tasks via Linux cron automation
- Future integration with Node-RED dashboard
