⚡ UPS Infrastructure Modernization Program

Multi‑Site Modernization • UPS Replacement • Network Upgrades • IT/OT Field Engineering


✨ Overview

A multi‑site modernization initiative spanning ~10 UPS facilities across the Northwestern United States.
This program combined facility‑wide UPS replacement, distributed modernization workflows, and enterprise IT/OT upgrades, including Wi‑Fi expansion, VoIP migration, device provisioning, and monitoring improvements.

The work required cross‑team coordination, zero‑downtime execution, and standardized deployment kits to ensure consistent results across all locations.

Role: Infrastructure Automation & Network Engineer
Duration: Jan 2023 – May 2023
Scope: 10 UPS facilities (multi‑state)


⚡ Quick Start

Explore the core components of this modernization program:

All files are sanitized and structured for portfolio demonstration.


🧾 System Summary

This repository models the modernization lifecycle across multiple UPS facilities, including:

  • UPS replacement & battery modernization
  • Distributed deployment workflows for multi‑site rollouts
  • SNMP‑based UPS monitoring & telemetry upgrades
  • Wi‑Fi expansion and RF planning
  • VoIP migration from legacy PBX to SIP
  • Security camera (CCTV/IP) support & NVR integration
  • Network printer deployment & queue standardization
  • SICK laser & encoder maintenance (OT systems)
  • Server, PC, and laptop provisioning
  • Remote support workflows
  • HR onboarding/offboarding support

This repo consolidates the operational, technical, and automation components required to modernize distributed UPS facilities with zero service disruption.


💡 Why This Work Matters

UPS facilities depend on continuous power, stable connectivity, and reliable communication systems.
This modernization program delivered:

  • Higher operational uptime
  • Improved network reliability
  • Standardized IT/OT support workflows
  • Reduced communication costs
  • Stronger monitoring and telemetry
  • Faster provisioning and remote support

The result was a measurable improvement in facility performance, safety, and operational efficiency.


🎯 Responsibilities & Scope

  • Modernized UPS systems across 10+ facilities
  • Upgraded Wi‑Fi infrastructure, improving coverage by 30%
  • Migrated legacy phone systems to VoIP, reducing costs by 20%
  • Implemented SNMP‑based UPS monitoring and alerting
  • Supported security camera deployments and NVR integrations
  • Maintained SICK lasers, encoders, and industrial sensors
  • Provisioned servers, PCs, and laptops using Intune & Jamf
  • Automated compliance checks and network provisioning
  • Delivered remote support and on‑site troubleshooting
  • Coordinated with UPS IT, facilities, and field teams
