Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Thornley is a seasoned IT infrastructure engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience designing, deploying, and managing Windows, Linux, and hybrid enterprise environments across small to large organizations. He has deep expertise in managed services and SLA-driven operations, Active Directory, Exchange, Citrix, clustering and SAN technologies, and specialty systems such as medical imaging, drug-dispensing, POS and video walls—often in HIPAA-compliant contexts. David led full migrations (Novell to Microsoft NT/AD), built redundant SAN clusters, and ran multi-site operations supporting dozens of remote offices, demonstrating both strategic planning and field engineering chops. He’s comfortable purchasing and managing end-to-end projects from network switches and routers to telecommunications and security cameras, and has supervised and mentored technical teams. Now semi-retired in Rhode Island while adapting to a new prosthetic leg, he continues to offer consulting-level expertise for complex rollouts and legacy-to-cloud transitions. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic problem-solver who blends old-school systems knowledge with modern cloud and managed-service best practices.
