Hi Strive Health team,
I call myself a technomancer. Technology has felt like magic to me since I was a kid, and I still get excited when something complicated becomes useful and approachable for another person. Keeping that feeling alive takes patient, practical work behind the scenes.
Your System Administrator role caught my attention because that work supports people delivering care. Strive brings clinicians, care coordinators, social workers and dietitians together around patients with kidney disease, with CareMultiplier helping those teams make sense of information. The people doing that work need dependable access, devices and support. I would like to help make their technology one less thing they have to work around.
At Front Range Internet Inc., I led the NOC and handled infrastructure readiness, monitoring, recovery verification and escalations. I had already worked there for years when the company changed hands; later, I was entrusted with sole systems-engineering responsibility for about a year, with the NOC continuing to handle first-line calls. I migrated workloads from Hyper-V and VMware ESXi to Docker and Kubernetes, upgraded server and firewall infrastructure, and ran the company's SOC 1 and SOC 2 audits. That work connected the operating systems to the SOPs and evidence needed to explain how they were being managed.
Through Technomancy IT, I stay close to the people relying on the systems I build. Clients call me directly when they need help. For Excell Services in Wray, I replaced or rebuilt legacy servers and employee computers, upgraded the network, and helped connect a satellite location using VPN connectivity, Windows Server and Active Directory. The goal was concrete: give people the network access and working equipment their jobs required. My earlier managed-services work at Everon also involved networks, endpoints, diagnostic tooling and on-call support, with business owners and end users part of the conversation.
I bring Microsoft 365 administration, Entra ID implementation and support, AWS IAM work, and PowerShell and Python scripting to that operational background. My Intune exposure is limited, and I would need to learn your Iru and Automox environment. I would approach that learning with the same care I bring to an unfamiliar client system: understand the existing configuration, work with the people responsible for it, and make the next change explainable. I would also bring experience coordinating enterprise changes at IBM and turning cross-department handoffs into shared workflows at Office Evolution.
Security-sensitive application work has strengthened that perspective. My completed client contribution to ProofMark connected signing, identity, PDF fields, routing and audit history, with explicit state and fallback paths. In my own support platform, I built deployment tooling around versioned images, migrations, health checks and deployment records, along with a restore-verification script that uses a disposable PostgreSQL instance. These are practical ways to make a system easier to inspect and support. They are also the habits I would bring to working with Strive's security team and helping Support Engineers investigate problems.
I am based in Milliken, Colorado, and would welcome a conversation about the systems your team is improving and where my background would be most useful. I would be glad to contribute both hands-on administration and the patience to make technical work clear to the people it serves.
