Summary
Zaqir S is a results-driven system and cloud engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience designing, migrating, and operating hybrid infrastructures across on-premises, VMware, Azure, and AWS environments. He has deep expertise in Windows Server administration, IIS, Active Directory/ADFS/SSO, virtualization (VMware/Hyper-V), and enterprise Java app servers (WildFly, Tomcat, GlassFish), combined with scripting/automation using PowerShell and Bash. At Envision Pharma he led cloud migration efforts that reduced costs and improved resiliency—redesigning architectures, automating backups, and implementing cross-region DR—while also supporting 24/7 enterprise application operations. He pairs infrastructure know-how with database and middleware skills (MS SQL, Oracle, JVM stacks) and practical security improvements such as Microsoft Defender deployment and SSL hardening. Currently based in Cromwell, CT and now at SupplyLogic, he brings a pragmatic blend of platform migrations, monitoring (Splunk/SolarWinds), and automation that measurably improves uptime and cost efficiency. Beyond routine ops, he tends to bridge ops and dev needs—streamlining CI/CD integrations for Atlassian tooling and application teams to accelerate deployments.
