• Responsible for creating, maintaining and running software builds for multiple environments using Jenkins Continuous Integration hosts and cloud-hosted build slaves (Amazon EC2 and Eucalyptus). • Own the product release process, including creating/deleting release/hotfix branches, merging branches to mainline branches post-release, communicating release status to stakeholders, and ensuring release builds are correct and made available to install teams.• Support Dev and QA environments by ensuring that deployment system is running correctly, that verification hosts (linux), both local and EC2-based, are operational, and that database servers have necessary schemas and dump files. Monitor ticket queue to quickly troubleshoot and resolve issues reported by Dev and QA.• Develop utility software to support release process, including custom github hooks and apps that build a local database of github data using the github API and conditional requests to stay within API limits.

• Responsible for creating, maintaining and running software builds for multiple environments using Hudson Continuous Integration server.• Use bash, Perl, ant and Subversion to create Hudson projects that check out code, compile, run unit tests, package and deploy software to remote Linux servers.• Develop Hudson jobs to aid in the software test and release effort, including application restart jobs, deployment jobs, application re-configuration jobs.• Maintain multiple QA/Demo/Integration environments; troubleshoot issues with connectivity, OS processes/resources, and software configuration.

• Wrote, reviewed and maintained test plans, test cases, and test scripts for testing high performance, enterprise Java web application, running on Linux, using Resin application server, with an Oracle 10g database (later migrated to PostgreSQL).• Used Selenium framework to automate functional tests. Programmed in Ruby, Perl, and sh/bash scripts to automate tasks, and used SQL to validate test results and troubleshoot problems. Managed code and documentation using Git, Subversion, CVS, Mercurial, github, and bitbucket. Reported and managed defects using Bugzilla and Jira.• Managed a team of 6 offshore QA resources who produced and maintained a suite of Selenium 2 automated functional tests.• Provided on-call support for production applications hosted at Amazon EC2 and maintained Linux and windows test environments.• Provided effective training and supervision to junior team members, including a team of offshore testers.
