I managed over 300 instances, addressing high-priority incidents using IBM Service Now and providing 24/7 on-call support. I deployed .NET and Java applications using TFS, Puppet, WebLogic, and Octopus and conducted regular server maintenance with SCCM and WSUS. I monitored server health with Nagios and SCOM, handled Active Directory management, and managed SSL certificates.
