Ray Moore

It’s a pretty big claim to say I am the Best Candidate for Innovative Director of Information Technology, Sr Director, Senior Manager, so let me explain …

Welcome to Ray Moore dot info

There was a  time when I was the computer guy and worked for 100s of clients in my 1st computer company, Micro Concepts.  I have literally seen every possible computer problem and every type of user that created most of said problems. 😊

Sr. Director of IT resume

Before and shortly after that company, I have worked as a:

• Programmer
• Trainer
• Director of Consulting
• Sr. Systems Engineer
• App Developer
• CEO mentor

It was the Sr. Systems Engineer with Mercury Interactive that changed my life.  Mercury was later bought by HP and MicroFocus.

I was the 1st person in the world to use Topaz, which became the foundation for Enterprise Monitoring and my foray as a pioneer in that field.  That was 22 years ago.  In that time I’ve had roles of:

• Topaz U.S. technical support for North America
• Director of Information Technology
• Director of Software Quality Assurance
• Principal
• Sr. Director
• CEO & CTO

I have worked with dozens of vertical markets too:

• Banking, Finance, Insurance
• Debt Collection
• Transportation
• Federal & State Government
• Education
• Telecom
• Retail
• etc.

Coupled with these departments:

Consulting, Enterprise Monitoring, IT, Technology, Ops Arch, Cloud, Infrastructure, Development, Training, Software Testing / Quality Assurance / SQA, Performance Testing or Automation.

And possibly these identifiers:

Expert, Problem Solver, Innovation, Design, Create, Disrupt, Ideate,  Mentor or Guru

I’ve either worked in, supported, managed or improved every IT role in a company.

I’m on LinkedIn, so feel free to connect with me.

Highlights of my qualifications most relevant to your needs include:

• Driven and Motivated IT Management and Consulting work including collaborating with Fortune 500 companies to drive improving efficiency, developing market leadership, and resolve complex issues.
• Deep understanding and knowledge of leadership, strong management, and creating a collaborative team environment.
• Innate ability to build and maintain solid relationships with clients, and colleagues in an effort to drive fluid communication.
• Realized a cost savings of $1M+ in maintenance fees through eliminating redundant tools that overlapped HP BAC, HP Openview, and MS SCOM.

I’ve always said that I’m the luckiest guy in the world – I have a great family, a fun life and the right opportunity always shows at the right time.

For example, you found me today, right?  If you’re not a hacker or spammer, we should probably meet!

• I’ve been voted #1 in the world by peers & clients for Excellence in Enterprise Monitoring
• My children say I’m the #1 Dad
• My wife and girlfriend are the same (#1)

Growing up in the Savannah, Georgia area did have its perks, but we mostly lived in the country (Pooler) when there was a blinking light and probably 5,000 people.

I started working with my dad when I was 8 doing carpentry and built my 1st set of kitchen cabinets when I was 12 – the owner had to help me carry plywood while his buddies grilled burgers and laughed; they couldn’t believe a 12 year old kid was able to use a circular saw, much less build cabinets.

We raised pigs and usually had 2 that would grow to 300-400 pounds each and spent time each week getting leftovers from a few restaurants – no charge, but dirty work that no child would consider today.

As a pitcher, I would spend hours a day, sometimes 6 straight on weekends, throwing a baseball against the house.  I  had a pretty serious baseball accident though, so mom wouldn’t take me to practice anymore and here we are today.
