I am a dedicated professional in the IT industry since 2003, bringing a wealth of experience across various roles, including Network Engineering, Cyber Security, Cloud Solutions, Pre-Sales, Consulting, and Solution Engineering. My diverse expertise spans multiple industries, including manufacturing, financial services, and managed service providers. I'm helping companies of all sizes around the globe to design and architect solutions to meet and exceed their business goals.
In my current role as Staff Solutions Architect I work in the Solutions & Performance Engineering team at Nutanix. In this R&D function, I am developing best practices, reference architectures and validated designs. I am working closely with Engineering and Product Management to represent the voice of our customers, curate their requirements and drive business outcomes for some of our largest customers.
Within my role as Principal Consulting Architect in the Nutanix Professional Services organization, I helped customers to architect and design enterprise solutions, driving digital transformation and reaching their business objectives. I was also leading some of the largest projects in EMEA and I also became the trusted advisor for some of our largest and most strategic customers in EMEA. In addition to that I was acting as a SME for the areas DevOps and Automation as well as mentoring and anboarding new team members.
In my role as Solutions Architect at VCE, the Virtual Computing Environment, I was responsible for the installation and successful integration of Vblock systems on-site at customer locations across the world. VCE was originally a joint venture between EMC and Cisco Systems with additional investments by VMware.
VCE got acquired by EMC which was later acquired by Dell Technologies.
In my time at Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) I had the chance to work in multiple roles, starting as a Network Engineer, then focusing on Compute and Virtualization (including some storage and backup). With my focus in Networking, Compute and Virtualization I became part of CSC's Cloud Delivery team which was instrumental in forming the companies standard for cloud solutions and private cloud offerings. Our team was responsible to provide private and public cloud systems for our customers. That included the on-premise installation of systems at customer locations, onboarding clients, migrations.
Later I was a Advisory Technical Sales Engineer within the Cloud Sales Org, focussing on discovering customer needs and requirements, identifying problem areas and defining solutions.
CSC is now known as DXC Technology which was founded in April 2017, through a merger between Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s Enterprise Services business unit and Computer Sciences Corporation.
