<h4 id="introduction">Introduction:</h4>
|
||
<p>Hey there, folks! Today, I’m sharing a pivotal moment in my career journey with you at d@n tech. After five months of serving as a Desktop Support Specialist at Pratt & Whitney PSD, I’ve moved into a new role as an IT Infrastructure Support Technician at Wolfspeed.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="my-time-at-pratt--whitney-psd">My Time at Pratt & Whitney PSD:</h4>
|
||
<p>At Pratt & Whitney PSD, I was the go-to guy for 200 end users, juggling tasks in office spaces and on the bustling machining floor. It was a busy gig that taught me the value of staying cool under pressure and finding solutions on the fly.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="transitioning-to-wolfspeed">Transitioning to Wolfspeed:</h4>
|
||
<p>Now, I’m settling into life at Wolfspeed, where I’m supporting around 80 end users across office and electrical lab environments. My plate is full with projects, L2 support, and handling the ins and outs of new user deployments.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="facing-the-challenges">Facing the Challenges:</h4>
|
||
<p>Switching gears to a new role isn’t without its hurdles. Getting acquainted with Wolfspeed’s IT setup and catering to a smaller user base has been a bit of a learning curve. But hey, every challenge is just a chance to level up, right?</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="embracing-the-opportunities">Embracing the Opportunities:</h4>
|
||
<p>Despite the adjustments, I’m pumped about what lies ahead. Wolfspeed offers a chance to dive deep into IT infrastructure support, exploring new tech and fine-tuning my project management chops along the way.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="a-blend-of-passion-and-purpose">A Blend of Passion and Purpose:</h4>
|
||
<p>For a homelabber and tech enthusiast like me, this career shift is more than just a job change - it’s about pursuing what fires me up and pushing myself to grow, both personally and professionally.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="looking-forward">Looking Forward:</h4>
|
||
<p>As I settle into my groove at Wolfspeed, I’ll be dishing out insights, tips, and tales from the trenches of IT support. So keep an eye out for more updates and musings as we journey through the world of tech and coffee together here at d@n tech.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4 id="conclusion">Conclusion:</h4>
|
||
<p>Change can be a wild ride, but it’s all about rolling with the punches and savoring the journey. Here’s to new beginnings, endless possibilities, and a good old cup of Americano to keep us grounded along the way.</p>
