- Migrated all Application Development personnel, code, builds, and deployments from TFS on-premise to Azure DevOps Services. This included new capabilities such as branch policies for standardized pull requests (code reviews).- Automated Azure DevOps governance and compliance using az CLI for things like: standard supported Angular versions; branch policy enforcement; stale code branches; automated removal of terminated users- Led and architected the efforts to migrate from .Net Framework 4.7.x and legacy auth services to .Net 6 using Identity Server hosted in the cloud. This includes refactoring from heterogenous microservices to a Doman-Driven Design approach.- Implemented auto-scaling of lower environment Azure resources for performance and load testing; this effort results in a $72K savings per year, rather than static SKUs 24/7.- Architected and implemented High Availability for Azure resources, leveraging Availability Zones, giving us 99.9999% up time for PROD apps.- Designed and implemented automated API tests that run after every deployment in the lower environments; write-once, execute against many environments, with only data configuration that is different. Delivery Teams have written over 4000 tests across multiple products.- Automated weekly static and software composition analysis of all code using Veracode; build reports notify teams when there is a flaw found. 75% of flaws identified and resolved in a week or less. - Code deployments are 100% automated across multiple environments; build & package once, deploy many.- Designed and prototyped an existing customer-facing web app which was transformed for mobile platforms using Ionic 6 and Capacitor. Leveraged AuthConnect for OIDC native security on web or the device, and used AppFlow to build and package for iOS and Android. 95% of the existing front-end code was reused, and all of the backend APIs were able to be used as-is.

Working to modernize feature delivery using my experience in DevOps, test automation, and the principles of things like Domain Driven Design.- Unit tests either did not exist or were not running in the build pipeline; led by example to enable delivery teams to run unit tests (C# & JavaScript) in the build pipeline for every build- Led by example to enable delivery teams to run API integration tests (NodeJS/JavaScript) against multiple APIs, multiple versions per API, and targeting 3 lower environments; we now have 4000+ API tests that run multiple times per week averaging 95+% passing. Each API deployment is followed up with a test run that prevents the deployment from progressing if a single test fails.- Provided direction for team to implement automated static analysis security scans in the build pipeline; prior was a manual process that was prone to human error- Introduced nuget API versioning package to reduce datacenter footprint (app pools, virtual dirs, etc.) for APIs by 80%- Led by example, helping all delivery teams to migrate from TFSVC to Git repos hosted in TFS; this included all build and release definitions; the process was mostly automated- Created new Authorization Server using Duende Server 6 backed by Azure Active Directory and on-premise Asp.Net Identity "custom" database; hosted as an Azure App Service running on .Net 6- Created Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for the Azure Cloud using both ARM Templates and Az PowerShell modules. Everything was automated using Azure DevOps Release Pipelines. Concerns addressed: create "environments" on-demand; integrate with KeyVault using Managed Identities; integrate with Azure SQL using Managed Identities; send all logs and telemetry to either Log Analytics or AppInsights; include things like IP restrictions, set whitelists, change SKU on-demand, etc. Disaster Recovery was planned out using IaC to create infrastructure on demand in a different region.- Setup Azure DevOps for the organization

Leveraging some great web technologies such as Durandal, TypeScript, SCSS, and others to add front-end video management for evidence collected by WatchGuard's best-in-class hardware: 4RE DVR and VISTA wearable cameras. Built synchronized video algorithm for two HTML5 web players in the browser in about 30 lines of TypeScript; the algorithm accounts for drift, automatically re-syncing the two video players without any user action. It works on as low as a 4G mobile connection.Implemented JavaScript Unit testing using Karma, Mocha, and Should, with Sinon for mocks. Added SuperTest to create an API test suite which included custom NodeJS modules for things like authorization.Worked extensively on CI/CD for things like web publishing & bundling, code coverage, JavaScript unit tests, and various Team City "build" projects. Some of these projects were to automate functional testing using NodeJS, TestComplete, PowerShell, and VM management tools.Created functional test result integration support between PowerShell Pester tests and the test manager, Zephyr. The test suite would dynamically execute--at run-time--only the tests configured for a given environment which matched test case IDs defined inside the test scripts. This way our QA team could update the configuration inside Zephyr which would then automatically modify the next test run. Nothing in the test scripts themselves had to change; it was all configuration-based. Results would make API calls from PowerShell at the end of the run to set test statuses in Zephyr.Also partnered with another engineer to build the UI for a native Android application using: Android Studio\SDK; Gradle; Java 8.
