1. About Me

I am Lawrence Saliba, an IT professional with over 22 years of diverse experience across telecommunications, manufacturing, and information technology. Over the past 16 years, I have developed a strong foundation in IT support, network management, business systems support, project management, PABX systems, WOPHOP / WordPress-based platforms, SharePoint administration, and Jotform administration.

I hold a BSc in Information Technology and several industry certifications, including MCSA, CompTIA A+, CCNA, and Microsoft Azure AZ-900. I am passionate about technology, continuous learning, and working with teams to deliver reliable IT services and practical technical solutions.

As an IT generalist, my goal is to advance my career by specialising further in cloud computing, particularly within the Microsoft Azure ecosystem. I am currently in the advanced stages of preparing for the AZ-104 Azure Administrator certification. Building on my background in server administration and infrastructure support, I also plan to expand into hybrid cloud technologies in the near future.

3. Proactive Web, Network and Application Projects

During my IT career, I proactively rebuilt several public-facing websites from scratch, using the previous website versions as references for content, structure, and intended functionality. These projects allowed me to apply practical web development skills while supporting public-sector digital services.

Public Website Projects

Disclaimer: These websites were rebuilt by me from scratch during my professional career, using the earlier website versions as references. They are no longer under my control, and their current content, structure, design, hosting, security, or maintenance may have changed since my involvement.

Education Department Network and Telephony Modernisation

While working within the Education Department, I was part of the team involved in transitioning public schools to the Cisco telephony system. This work supported the modernisation of school communications infrastructure and contributed to a more standardised technical environment across multiple sites.

I also spearheaded an initiative to replace ageing HP network switches with 48-port PoE Aruba switches. The initiative included reviewing existing network cabinet layouts, identifying redundant patching, improving port consolidation, and helping prepare the environment for a cleaner, more maintainable network infrastructure. By the time I left the department, this initiative had been organised and progressed into a tender process.

CFMS Role Calculator

I developed a CFMS Role Calculator to support role-based access management within the Central Financial Management System. The tool helped simplify the process of identifying, reviewing, and assigning appropriate system roles based on departments, missions, stores, workflows, menu access, and data controls.

The project included features for role calculation, access review, mission sorting, role validation, and comparison of expected versus assigned CFMS access.

AI-Assisted Productivity and Prompting

Recognising the current rapid growth of AI-enabled productivity tools, I have also taken practical steps to develop prompting skills across ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Gemini. My focus is on using these tools responsibly to support documentation, troubleshooting, process improvement, and the creation of practical tools that respond to current work exigencies.

This CV itself was substantially updated with the support of AI-assisted drafting, review, and refinement, while the final content remains reviewed, selected, and controlled by me.
