• Performed Quality Assurance inspections and engineering analysis on contractor installed Inside Plant, Outside Plant, and Gigabit Ethernet data networks to ensure adherence to Department of the Army, I3MP, BICSI, and commercially accepted installation practices. Monitored and conducted Systems Acceptance Testing which evaluates IP network configuration, failover/recovery, redundancy, manageability, and robustness required by the Army’s I2A2 design specifications. Monitored Testing, and Evaluation of installed Brocade Networks routers/switches and analyzed results to ensure sufficient security mechanisms are in place to adhere to US Army information security directives. Validated documentation provided by the implementation contractor for completeness and accuracy against redline documentation created in QA process to ensure documentation corresponded to installation and engineering design plans.

Served as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) on the inside plant (ISP) installations for the US Army Africa in Stuttgart Germany consisting of renovated buildings in Germany and Italy. Collaborated with CECOM (Communications-Electronics Command) and 52nd Signal Battalion and local contractors providing leadership for IT systems by reviewing design documentation and recommendations on standards for inside and outside copper and fiber cabling infrastructures, manhole and duct systems, and voice backbone networks, wired and wireless premise distribution systems, Local Area Networks(LAN), Voice systems (TDM,VOIP), including equipment shelters, HVAC, and AC/DC power systems (generators, battery systems, inverters, rectifiers, power distribution, and grounding systems). Attended weekly progress meeting with the J65 command to brief them on any delays or issues with quality of work completed by the implementation contractor. completed documentation for the purpose of validating the validity of the implementation contractors work and documentation.

Responsible for the management of teams of differing size required to collect Legacy Network architecture and data including port counts, network configs, power requirements, and equipment type and age. Heatmapping was implemented in all buildings required for WLAN upgrades to create detailed data on wireless dead zones in US Armed Forces medical facilities worldwide. Data collected on site were then used to create a network design used for implementation upon return.

Provided services related to the extension and upgrade of Wired Local Area Networks and Wireless Local Area Networks (LAN/WLAN) at Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) and associated outlying/remote facilities in both CONUS and OCONUS locations. Duties included LAN/WLAN, Survey and Design Reports, LOM (List of Materials), Installation, Integration, and Test, Cutover and Closeout, As-Built Drawings and Post Implementation Documentation, Post Implementation Review. LAN Infrastructure grounding/bonding of ALL electronics and installation of Universal Power Switches. Switch upgrade, configuration, and troubleshooting. Configuration of Access Points, Controllers, Authentication Testing, Failover Testing and Evaluation of installed components.

Analyzed existing LAN and wireless LAN (WLAN) infrastructures and developed detailed design plans to perform network upgrades covering network switching, routing protocols and devices, network topologies and architecture, IP addressing, network security fundamentals, wireless controllers, and other IP-based network upgrades.

Served as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) on the inside plant (ISP) and outside plant (OSP) installations for the US Army for the new Caserma Del Din base consisting of a mix of new and renovated buildings. Collaborated with NAVFAC (Naval Facilities engineering command) and 509th Signal Battalion and local contractors providing leadership for IT systems by reviewing design documentation and recommendations on standards for inside and outside copper and fiber cabling infrastructures, manhole and duct systems, and voice backbone networks, wired and wireless premise distribution systems, Local Area Networks(LAN), Synchronous Optical Networks (SONET), Voice systems (TDM,VOIP), Integrated Services Digital Networks(ISDN), base wide CCTV systems and support for auxiliary systems including equipment shelters, HVAC, and AC/DC power systems (generators, battery systems, inverters, rectifiers, power distribution, and grounding systems). Attended weekly progress meeting with NAVFAC and ROICC (Resident/regional officer in charge of construction.) to brief them on any delays or issues with quality of work completed by the implementation contractor. Maintained a completed set of as built documentation for the purpose of validating the validity of the implementation contractors work and documentation.
