Kevin Bridges

I am currently a Build and Release Engineer at Autodesk. (more to follow) At Taxware, our team used the Jenkins continuous integration system to automate our builds. I created and reconfigured batch scripts that built our projects. I installed and configured the Artifactory Maven Repository management system and created scripts using Ruby and Perl. I have served in the Army (active and reserve components) over 18 years. I have a Bachelors Degree in Information Technology and have worked as a Jr. Network Administrator (6 months) for RSA and as a VBA Developer (6 months) for EMC. I also have a bit of experience in operations and project management that I gained in the military. I am currently pursuing a MBA from the University of New Hampshire (Manchester). At RSA, my role as a Jr. Network Administrator has helped me to develop an understanding of IT network fundamentals. I leaned how to configure Cisco switches, install and configure Windows Server, and make hardware changes. At my internship at EMC, I used VBA for MS Access in order to create a reservation system for my team. While serving as a Company Executive Officer in Operation New Dawn, I was second in command of a Headquarters Company of 90 personnel. I was responsible for the planning, coordination, execution, and supervision of all company administrative and logistical operations in order to support the achievement of the company mission. I was also responsible for the accountability and maintenance of all equipment assigned to the company. My goals are to master the process of implementing software and to eventually lead a project team. Specialties: Business Student, Network Administration, Project Management, Software Development
