Phillip Rucker’s Expertise As a business and results-focused Senior-level IT leader, I have frequently found success taking a purpose-driven approach to shaping and aligning IT, cloud, and infrastructure strategies with the business objectives of many global companies over the past 18 years. Beginning my travels in the Helpdesk and working my way up to a Technology VP, I maintain a hands-on and servant leadership style with all my teams and excel in leading several functions while often executing multiple initiatives. I have a deep understanding of how to build high-performing teams and achieve both IT operational efficiency and cost-optimized resilient business systems & infrastructure. KEY LEADERSHIP HIGHLIGHTS BUSINESS ALIGNMENT — Spearheaded the technology integration of 7 M&A transactions. Most integrations were completed within 12 months, requiring my constant synchronization of business objectives and fluid technology ecosystems. STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP & EXECUTION — Drove 4 complex Cloud Transformations and 4 ITIL ITSM implementations across different organizations. ITSM implementations were often executed from ground zero in organizations with few-to-zero processes or standards. INNOVATION & TECHNICAL ACUMEN — Hands-on in consolidating 6 SRE Observability tools down to 1 (New Relic) and implementing an AIOps program & tools that strengthened infrastructure resiliency and saved 1M+ in operational expenses. COST OPTIMIZATION — Guided over 2M in expense reductions along my strategic technology roadmaps in different organizations. All savings reduced IT Operations overhead and were achieved through consolidating redundant tools & systems and contract negotiation with Managed Service Providers & Vendors.
