- Lead on r24 release (pre sign on account application) of new retail banking application platform (a rewrite of PCF and CIBC online banking)- Team was composed of three sub teams: a 6 person team responsible for mid tier service (rest API), a 5 person team responsible for mobile (iOS, Android) clients and a 2 person team responsible for a responsive web client- Team was new to agile development and I was responsible for defining their processes and practices. To this end, I created a model for development combining SCRUM, XP and Lean methodologies which I codified as a timeline and series of checklists (commits, tasks, stories, sprints and releases); I built out a continuous deployment pipeline (Jenkins) and trained the team on its use; finally, I set up the plan and track team progress daily with a planning tool (JIRA)- As part of work on the pipeline, introduced the team to the use of a static analysis tool (SonarQube) - only being used as a feedback mechanism but goal was to use it as a gate once the team was up to speed.- The final piece added to pipeline was full stack integration testing (currently evaluating intern) tied to acceptance criteria for stories (expressed as BDD scenarios)
