Started out as a Trainee Operations Analyst. Primarily involved writing, maintaining and supporting, including on-call, JCL for batch jobs that utilised IMS and additionally/optionally designing and creating supportive utilities, using CLIST and ISPF/PDF, PLI and Assembler for MVS.

Moved into Automation being given free-rein to improve the OPCA installation. Was part IBM's Parallel Sysplex Project and implemented a fully compliant 4 part (OPCA Testing, Training, Production and pre-production testing) including take-over and added automated take-back of OPCA.

Moved to British Telecom's Concert Virtual Network System managing development-production migrations (including designing/creating utilities to automate the process).

Moved to IBM Australia (Sydney) as a batch scheduler.

Moved to American Express Sydney as part of a new Team to manage Testing Environments, writing a virtually fully automated system that populated the testing environments, converted JCL for testing.

IBM brought out AMEX operations worldwide, myself included, was moved to Qauntas's Production Control i.e. managing production migrations of their server based applications (e.g. their Website).

As a hobby/interest wrote a fully functional PHP/HTML/CSS/AJAX Child Support Calculator (Australian), that performs the calculations that the official calculator cannot do.
