Today is my last day as a Microsoft Dedicated Premier Field Engineer.  I have been supporting our enterprise customers as a PFE (Dedicated) for the last 5 years.  This role has enabled me to see some of the largest and more complex OpsMgr 2007 deployments out there.  It is a unique role, where I was exposed to many facets of SCOM… it really enabled this blog to provide the material over the last few years.

I will be starting Monday as a Data Center TSP (Technical Solution Professional), which is a fancy way of saying Technical Sales.  I will now be covering the Microsoft System Center suite of products.  SCCM, SCOM, Opalis/Orchestrator, DPM, and Avicode.

I will still be blogging on a regular basis…… but I anticipate the nature of this blog will change.  I will be covering a lot broader range of products, instead of focusing only on OpsMgr.  I also imagine that things will get more deployment and design focused, probably not as rich with “early to market” issues and challenges like I have seen in the past.

That said – PFE is hiring!  If you are interested in working for Microsoft – we have a LOT of open positions all over the US (including my vacant position) for almost all the Microsoft technologies.  Simply visit http://careers.microsoft.com and search on “PFE”.  Many of the positions are non-location specific and you can work from almost anywhere!  If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly via the blog contact form.
