SYSTEMS ADMINISTRATION · IT LEADERSHIP
Reliable systems.
Strategic alignment.
People first.
I’m Laszlo Sandor. I connect people to technology and systems with the planning, the communication, and the follow-through to help align technology strategy to business goals.
As companies grow, technology needs to grow with them.

01 / SELECTED WORK
The Story Behind the Solutions.
A closer look at infrastructure, change, and the people each project supports. Project accounts are drawn from my work history; employer names and sensitive operational details are omitted.
01INFRASTRUCTURE · ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE
Multi-Site Infrastructure Modernization
Bringing separate infrastructure and technology environments together around a common foundation.
Challenge
A company merger brought separate offices and aging infrastructure into one organization. Identity, communications, and server infrastructure needed to support the combined business.
My Role
Built a new Windows domain, moved the merged offices to an interconnected VoIP platform, and replaced aging physical servers with a virtualized environment.
Technologies
Windows Server · Active Directory · VMware · VoIP · Multi-site networking
Result
A unified identity and voice foundation across locations, lower hardware costs, and a more flexible platform for business systems.
02BUSINESS CONTINUITYMaking disaster recovery a priority+
Challenge
A regulated financial organization needed a documented, tested approach to keeping critical operations available during a disruption.
My Role
Developed business continuity and disaster recovery plans, established an off-site recovery location for backups, and tested readiness through annual scenarios, tabletop exercises, and backup-data tests.
Technologies
Onsite and off-site backups · Colocation recovery infrastructure · Recovery procedures · Tabletop exercises
Result
Recovery planning met regulatory requirements and gave teams a repeatable way to rehearse their response and validate recovery procedures.
03PROJECT DELIVERYTechnology ready when the doors open+
Challenge
Two new buildings needed complete technology environments coordinated with construction, facilities, and business requirements.
My Role
Worked with stakeholders, vendors, contractors, architects, and builders to design network and electrical drops, cabling routes, rack placement, infrastructure, and endpoints.
Technologies
Structured cabling · Network infrastructure · Server racks · Endpoints · Facility technology planning
Result
Staff could move into the new facilities and begin business operations with the technology environment in place.
04USER ENABLEMENTTaking essential tools into the field+
Challenge
Engineering and fleet staff needed access to project information and service systems where the work happened, including job sites and equipment outside the shop.
My Role
Equipped engineering staff with tablets and GIS access, deployed tablets for fleet service work, and installed wireless access points for shop connectivity.
Technologies
Mobile tablets · GIS applications · Fleet service systems · Wireless access points
Result
Field teams could use project and service information at the point of work, including when heavy equipment could not return to the shop.
02 / TECHNICAL EXPERTISE
Depth in the systems.
Perspective across the business.
My work spans the infrastructure itself, the applications it supports, and the users who rely on both.

- ERP, GIS, SQL & clinical systems support
- Vendor coordination, documentation & training
03 / HOW I WORK
Good IT starts
with listening.
The technical solution matters. So does understanding the work it needs to make possible.
My experience has brought me alongside field crews, clinical teams, business leaders, vendors, and project partners. That range shapes the way I approach technology and leadership.
01Start with the operational need.
Understand who depends on a service and what they need to accomplish before choosing the solution.
Own the path from plan to handoff.
Connect design and implementation with documentation, training, and the support needed after launch.
Prepare for the difficult day.
Treat backup validation, recovery exercises, and clear procedures as part of running reliable services.
Make change understandable.
Work closely with stakeholders and vendors, explain practical tradeoffs, and help users feel prepared.

A little
more
than a
job
title.
Outside of work, my wife and I enjoy traveling, exploring new places, and experiencing different cultures—especially through food. As empty nesters, we’re enjoying the freedom to pursue new adventures while continuing to focus on our careers. The coast is one of our favorite places to unwind. A beach umbrella, our feet in the sand, and time together make for a pretty wonderful day.
My interest in technology began when I was about fourteen, after taking apart my first piece of equipment to discover what was inside and how it worked. That curiosity grew into a career I still enjoy today. I continue to spend some of my free time reading about technology and working on computers at home. Learning how things work remains as much a personal interest as a professional one.
I also enjoy building models in my spare time. It’s a relaxing way to unwind at home and express my creative side. When I’m not working on a model, you might find me playing poker with my buddies or enjoying a walk in the park.
