Summary
Hans Vraga is a pragmatic program coordinator and IT operations leader with 10+ years of experience managing portfolios, configuration management, and incident/change processes for large public-sector and university IT organizations. He excels at turning messy operational workflows into documented, auditable processes that reduce technical debt and improve delivery velocity, and he brings PMP and ITIL rigor to cross-functional teams. At USGS he coordinated a dozen-plus concurrent projects while serving as the primary partner liaison; earlier he established the inaugural Configuration Manager role at UW–Madison and drove CMDB adoption and disaster recovery planning. A former Marine helicopter crew chief, he pairs disciplined, mission-focused leadership with a hands-on technical background in UNIX systems, metrics, and technical documentation. Colleagues rely on him to ask the practical questions nobody else does—How can we ship faster, learn as a team, and have more fun doing it—then make it happen.
