"The work is not learning the systems. The work is unlearning the assumption that systems are ever finished. The good operators come to terms with this early."

systems engineer intern

MEDPACE // enterprise infrastructure

Assisted in the administration and support of enterprise IT infrastructure across on-premises and cloud environments.
Collaborated with senior engineers to maintain Microsoft-based systems including SharePoint, Exchange, Skype for Business, IIS, SQL Server, and Active Directory (DNS, DHCP, Group Policy).
Monitored and maintained virtualized environments using VMware across local and international data centers, alongside enterprise storage solutions such as EMC and Pure.
Supported backup and recovery processes using Commvault and Symantec Backup Exec, and assisted with network operations including SD-WAN technologies like Silver Peak.
Spent a meaningful chunk of the internship doing the unglamorous-but-critical work — documentation, baseline reviews, validating that what we thought was running matched what was actually running.

cybersecurity intern

NCUS // cyber operations

Supported enterprise IT and cyber operations across multiple facilities, performing device provisioning, system imaging, OS deployment, and endpoint lifecycle management.
Designed, installed, and tested custom Ethernet cabling and network drops to support reliable connectivity and infrastructure expansion.
Implemented system hardening and baseline security configurations, supporting access controls, firewall rules, and secure configuration practices.
Contributed to cyber insurance readiness by gathering documentation, validating security controls, and aligning systems with cybersecurity compliance requirements.
Got first-hand experience with what compliance work actually feels like in practice — closer to a long, careful conversation between auditors, controls, and reality than to a checklist.
