Background

About Ryan Burkell

With over three years of experience in system and network administration, I am passionate about ensuring data security, reliability, and efficiency for diverse clients and organizations. I have extensive knowledge and skills in Veeam and Data Domains, firewall and server maintenance, and privileged access management. I currently work as a System & Network Administrator at Kalitta Air, a leading cargo airline company with global operations. In my current role, I oversee 1.5 petabytes of uncompressed backups using Veeam and Data Domains with DD Boost, enhancing disaster recovery reliability. I also maintain and troubleshoot firewalls, servers, and printers, ensuring optimal performance and technical efficiency. I have implemented improved backup standards and coordinated with disaster response teams to secure breached domains, achieving 100% data security. Additionally, I have traveled domestically to install firewalls, switches, access points, and printers, successfully deploying SD-WAN for enhanced HQ communications. I have also instituted a central Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution for secure, centralized storage of passwords and secrets.
