Cody Diehl

Interested in making a career transition to a fitting role such as Site Reliability Engineer, Automation Engineer, or Cloud Architect. With over 11 years of IT experience, I have developed a wide range of technical skills in my roles as Sr. Linux Engineer and Sr. Cloud Architect, which I held at multiple Managed Service Providers. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had at MSPs, as the variety of different environments I have encountered have enabled me to successfully complete many important projects for Fortune 500 and other high-stakes companies.

I am passionate about my work and have always sought out opportunities to learn and develop new skills. I find these experiences to be incredibly rewarding, as they allow me to engage with the subject and gain a greater understanding. I am proud of the level of mastery I have achieved through these experiences. I am confident that my experience, enthusiasm for learning, and creative problem-solving skills make me a valuable asset to any organization, as I am committed to striving for excellence and to continuously improving my skills.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

  Google has published a detailed article describing how we implemented a complete Disaster Recovery process using Terraform, Ansible, and Bash for the company Rodan & Fields. At the time, Google had no existing Disaster Recovery product to work with, so we had to create everything from scratch. The deployment process was performed using the same automation framework I wrote the Infrastructure as Code [IaC] using Terraform + Ansible and Shell Scripting to deploy the entire DEV, QA, QA N+1, PRD & DR SAP ECC environment for the client.

  I was awarded Employee of the Month and Innovation Award Winner for my leading contribution to a Marathon Petroleum project, which included designing a major end-to-end Disaster Recovery automation solution. I was able to completely orchestrate failover in waves of systems in a particular order of starting and stopping services from databases, applications, along with NFS and CIF's shares using Azure NetApp Files & NetApp ONTAP replication. Then utilized Invoke-AzVMRunCommand to initialize the VM which has failed over to replication site and update any hard-coded entries that required manual update, such as hosts files, exports, mounts, configs, along with application config and start processes. This was achieved via a framework written completely from scratch via PowerShell, Bash, orchestrated by a series of Azure Automation PowerShell Runbooks called by Azure Site Recovery (ASR) Recovery Plans.
