ANDRES ARCIGA
Systems Integration Engineer · Bakersfield, CA

I connect enterprise systems to the AI era.

I engineer secure paths from legacy applications to AI, lead the technical side of acquisitions, and build cloud and IT foundations that scale with the business.

Built for this momentFor 10+ years, I have developed my cloud, compute, and data skills. I now apply that foundation to secure AI integration and enterprise operations.

Approach

Make existing systems useful in a new era of data and AI.

I work across cloud infrastructure, identity, endpoint management, and industrial technology. I build Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors that translate existing APIs into focused tools for AI agents, giving them controlled access to operational data. In a multi-site healthcare environment, I have helped integrate acquisitions, centralize technology operations, and connect existing applications to new AI workflows. I design for scoped access, clear ownership, and systems that teams can maintain.

Systems work, described by the problem and the result.

Cloud / AI integration

Secure bridge from legacy systems to enterprise AI

Problem

IT teams had to move between separate systems to answer basic operational questions. That manual search slowed support and kept useful data out of approved AI workflows.

Build

Built MCP connectors for several legacy systems, mapping REST data into focused agent tools and bringing separate company systems into a unified AI experience. Deployed on Cloud Run with service identity, Secret Manager, and scoped access.

Validated result

Connected previously separate company systems through a common agent experience, enabling operational questions against current source data through controlled tools.

Migration / continuity

Moving data and systems through acquisitions

Problem

Each acquisition brought its own accounts, mail, files, device practices, and retention needs. Bringing those systems together required a dependable technical migration plan.

Build

Led technical discovery, data migration, identity transition, and cutover into Google Workspace; consolidated migration, archive, and backup workflows with CloudM and Google Cloud Storage.

Result

Moved acquired teams onto shared systems while improving access, continuity, and support. Reusable migration and retention practices reduced reliance on outside migration services.

Enterprise IT / distributed operations

Repeatable foundations for a growing organization

Problem

Rapid growth and acquisitions outpaced small-company IT processes. Device setup, account access, licensing, and site connectivity needed to work consistently across distributed teams.

Build

Researched, tested, and rolled out Windows cloud sign-in, zero-touch MDM enrollment, endpoint protection, UniFi networking, and centralized software administration.

Result

Created repeatable provisioning and support practices, stronger device and network visibility, and a foundation the growing IT team could operate at enterprise scale.

Industrial / academic capstone

Factory floor data into cloud analytics

Problem

Machine data is hard to translate into useful operational insights.

Build

Simulated a production line in Factory I/O/OpenPLC and exported data to BigQuery and Looker Studio.

Result

Dashboards for throughput, queues, load, jams, and downtime. The final pipeline used structured exports.

Experience

Systems Integration Engineer

Redwood Family Care Network

Lead technical integration for acquisitions, including data and identity migrations; design cloud services and MCP connectors that bring existing systems into secure AI workflows. Coordinate architecture, access, and operational handoff across business and IT teams.

IT Technical Analyst

Redwood Family Care Network

Helped build the IT foundation as the organization grew: researched and deployed cloud migration and backup tools, device enrollment, Windows identity, endpoint protection, and remote-site networking.

Program management, technical sales & operations

Rexel USA

Progressed from counter sales and warehouse operations into technical sales and program management. Managed the GE Renewable Energy account across regions, reviewing project scope, technical drawings, material requirements, costs, and delivery milestones. Coordinated engineering teams, fabricators, vendors, and customers, using SAP Ariba and EDI for procurement and order workflows. Earlier sales roles built my practical knowledge of electrical distribution, switchgear, controls, and industrial components.

Education

Cloud experience with an industrial systems perspective.

B.S. Industrial Automation · Bakersfield College, 2026

For 10+ years, I have developed my cloud, compute, data, and integration skills. My goal is to bring that experience into industrial technology, connecting physical systems and operational data with cloud services and AI as the field evolves. My industrial automation education provides the controls and systems foundation for that work. Google Cloud certified. Also earned associate degrees in Industrial Automation and Industrial Technology (Electronics Option), and a certificate in Mechatronics, Robotics, and Automation Engineering.
