Trace3 / Capital Group - Senior Infrastructure Engineer

- Present

OS hardening and security compliance for enterprise Windows and Linux environments. Currently working on OS build automation and security hardening.
  • Automate and secure enterprise OS deployments through CI/CD pipelines leveraging vRA, vRO, Ansible Automation Platform (AAP), GitHub Playbooks, Ansible roles, and Nexus‑managed binaries.
  • Review and approve infrastructure‑as‑code changes to ensure secure, consistent, and compliant system builds across Windows and Linux environments.
  • Develop, troubleshoot, and optimize PowerShell scripts implementing security baselines, configuration controls, and automated hardening logic.
  • Validate and enforce security controls using Group Policy Objects (GPOs) after script‑based testing to ensure consistent configuration across the enterprise.
  • Diagnose and resolve OS build failures across automated provisioning workflows, orchestration layers, and ServiceNow CMDB integrations.
  • Monitor and improve security posture using Tanium compliance scans, analyze remediation reports, and drive corrective actions to meet organizational benchmarks.
  • Collaborate with platform, security, and automation teams to enhance pipeline reliability, configuration governance, and compliance accuracy.
  • Hands-on experience with Enterprise IT operations, including ITIL frameworks and regulatory/compliance requirements.

- Present

Owned company-wide technical strategy and product roadmap across open-source adoption, commercial product, and research investments.
  • Built and operated a full local GenAI compute environment using RTX 4090 GPUs, supporting high‑throughput inference, model experimentation, and automated image/video generation workflows.
  • Designed and maintained the entire Generative AI toolchain, including Automatic1111, Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, custom nodes, LoRA pipelines, and isolated virtual environments for reproducible results.
  • Conducted systematic model evaluation and hyperparameter testing across checkpoints, LoRAs, samplers, schedulers, and control networks to optimize output quality for commercial use cases & scanability of the artwork QR Codes.
  • Engineered a workflow to generate scannable QR‑embedded artwork, integrating brand logos and visual elements directly into the scene using diffusion‑based conditioning and prompt‑control techniques.
  • Developed automated pipelines to convert still images into high‑quality video animations, leveraging frame interpolation, motion models, and GPU‑accelerated rendering.
  • Owned the full technical stack for the startup, including GenAI infrastructure, customer‑facing systems, SaaS membership platform, payment integrations, newsletter automation, analytics, and operational tooling.
  • Managed internal IT systems including Google Workspace, communication platforms, project/task management tools, and security baselines for a lean early‑stage environment.
  • Collaborated on product direction, customer outreach, and technical feasibility assessments for new AI‑driven features and offerings.
  • Familiarity with generative AI concepts including MCP, RAG, context windows, token usage, skills, system prompts, prompt engineering, guardrails, and prompt injection.
  • Experience with generative AI tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Codex, & Gemini.
