   Jan 2021 — Present

   As a Sr. Lab Solutions Architect in the Google Cloud Learning Services organization, I manage and deliver programs involving multi organization, cross product area (xPA) solutions that enable virtual and instructor led training on a global scale via self paced, hands on labs (SPLs). Self paced labs provide students with a time bound, ephemeral Google Cloud Platform project that can be utilized to try products and services in a lab scenario with learning objectives, an instruction manual and checkpoints used to validate the actions of the student user as they progress through the learning scenarios they take. SPLs are also used in GCP Certification courses (https://cloud.google.com/certification) and during sales conference events via Game catalogs which facilitate multi-user competitions for prizes (swag).* My team creates highly tailored custom content for customer workshops delivered in multi day training sessions through business partners as well as our professional services organization.* I possess both the business and technical knowledge required to scope and negotiate statements of work while leading vendors and internal teams through the delivery of platform content.* Content is delivered through Coursera, Pluralsight and the Qwiklabs Platform (Google owned).* Delivered specialized ISV and GSI training content based upon business partner agreements.* Requires skills necessary to automate lab infrastructure and workshop content at mass scale (8M+ users) via infrastructure as code and scripting technologies such as Terraform, bash, Python, Java and NodeJS.
