Network Operations Center Intern

Aug 2021 - Dec 2021
As a network operations center intern for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I helped manage the worldwide network of the church including Cisco devices, Virtual Machine Servers, Oracle databases, and miscellaneous other devices used to support the organization. I have supported devices on almost every continent and worked with other individuals from many countries to manage the Information Technology needs of the church. I have used software such as SolarWinds, Meraki, ServiceNow, AKIPS, Nagios, and a few other monitoring components. I have also helped manage high-priority incidents such as regional network or power outages and helped to provide a quick and appropriate response to solve those issues with the providers. After which, I participated in retrospective evaluations to see how we could prevent these issues from happening again. As part of my role, I also ran snapshots and backups on various virtual machines and servers. I also frequently used Microsoft remote desktop, VMWare VCenter, and other tools to remotely manage machines across the globe. Our team worked to provide 24/7 coverage to the globe. As such, I have received and fielded many phone calls to provide top-quality customer assistance to those of varying social, economic, cultural, and personal backgrounds. Show less
