Summary
Ivan Sanders is an Independent SharePoint Server Developer, MVP, and MCT with over 15 years of hands-on experience architecting, migrating, and optimizing enterprise SharePoint and Microsoft stack solutions. He has led large-scale SharePoint farm deployments, high-availability and DR designs (including SQL Always On and F5 SSL offloading), and complex migrations using Metalogix and PowerShell for clients like Nikon, Union Bank, Intuit, and Ernst & Young. Comfortable across .NET, C#, JavaScript, and modern front-end frameworks, he blends deep platform knowledge with practical DevOps and automation practices to reduce risk and accelerate delivery. Beyond technical delivery he’s run training and developer enablement programs, earned multiple Microsoft certifications (MCTS/MCITP/MCSE/MCT) and a SharePoint MVP, and has a track record of turning legacy environments into scalable, manageable intranets and extranets. A less obvious strength is his longevity across roles from startup CTO to large-enterprise engagements, giving him rare perspective on both product strategy and low-level implementation tradeoffs.
