Background

Currently employed as Head of IT for a research company in Devon. I manage a virtual environment of around two hundred and fifty CentOS VMs and a separate SuperMicro HPC cluster, as well as being manager to a team of seven. I support multiple Windows domains and associated virtual domain controllers, file servers and storage.

As Linux technical lead I supervise all Linux projects to ensure they are delivered successfully and on time from initial research through proof of concept to release.

Outside of work

I love running, and get out whenever I can. I'm not the quickest, but it keeps me fits and I love being outside. I read a lot and follow UK politics, US sports and global tech news.

I volunteer weekly at a charity for the homless and vulnerably housed. I find this a welcome change of pace from the office work, and a chance to interact with people who need support. You should find out more about the work that St Petrocks do here.
