The Integrity of Experience

Systems Engineer | IT Consultant | Career Brand Architect

Decades of Real-World Experience

Michael Challis, IT Consultant

My journey has always been about understanding how complex systems work and fixing them when they don't. I began my career mastering automotive systems, achieving national recognition as a Master Chrysler Technician. That same drive for precision led me to teach myself programming (Perl, PHP, MySQL) to build and manage high-traffic e-commerce platforms and national car club websites.

From 2008 to 2021, I owned and operated a successful computer service business with five employees. Today, I continue to provide expert remote IT support and consulting for businesses across Oregon, Washington, and Florida under the Mike’s Computer Tech brand.

The Evolution of Challis Career Branding

Through years of supporting professional practices, I noticed a recurring problem: many talented people were "stuck" in their careers because their career data systems (resumes and LinkedIn) were failing them.

I founded Challis Career Branding to apply diagnostic precision to the job hunt. I use AI-driven tools to analyze how Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) read your professional data, and I re-engineer your brand to ensure you bypass the bots and reach the human decision-maker.

Integrity & Efficiency First

My approach is simple: provide reliable, responsive, and straightforward results. As an INTJ-T personality type, I value efficiency and data-driven solutions over "fluff." As a man of faith and integrity, I believe in being a trusted partner who delivers exactly what is promised.

Whether I am managing your business network or re-engineering your professional brand, the goal is the same: identify the friction points, implement the solution, and get you back to business.
