- Created Jenkins pipelines to automate UI testing via AWS Device Farm on a per-commit and nightly basis with email reports being sent to the Android team.- Created Jenkins pipelines to automate UI testing on physical devices attached to on-premise build agents with email reports being sent to the Android team.- Created Jenkins jobs to run automated iOS UI test suite and automatically email results to the iOS team.- Migrated the Android build process off of MacOS Build agents to an autoscaling configuration using AWS EC2 instances and Jenkins so there were no builds sitting in queue.- Integrated test results reporting into TestRail for both Android and iOS teams.- Created a Chef cookbook to automate the configuration of iOS build agents and doubled the number of build agents for the iOS team.

- Automated generation of a consolidated list of libraries used by the Domino product, along with their respective licenses for legal review by customers.- Identified and evaluated multiple Test Case Management SAAS offerings to determine the most viable choice (TestRail) to help Domino Data Lab drive towards Continuous Delivery.- Automated the reporting results of various types of tests into TestRail, then integrated the execution and reporting of tests into the Continuous Delivery pipeline.- Designed and implemented an automated Release Certification process to cut release cycle from 6+ weeks to less than 7 days.

Accomplishments:- Migrated the MyTesla team to Git source control from Team Foundation Server 2015 (TFS) to bring tooling in line with the corresponding WWW team.- Maintained a Jenkins instance used by five different teams using Jenkinsfiles for job configuration.- Maintained a Nexus Repository Manager (open source version) to store NuGet packages and Docker images.

Accomplishments:- Responsible for interviewing and onboarding Software Engineers and Release Engineers for on-site and off-site locations for the Release Team.- Took over completely manual deployments from MyTesla, Tesla Scheduling System, Tesla Energy, Tesla Ecommerce, Customer Refund Request, and Payment Gateway development teams, then designed and implemented automated build, deployment, and configuration processes for 30 web services, 2 command-line applications, and 5 databases to 9 non-production environments, cutting build-and-deploy turnaround times by 90+%. These processes used C# command-line tools and Powershell scripts run by a Jenkins instance hosted on Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2.- Designed, developed, and automated the "Release List" process in C# to highlight all changes in a production release for the MyTesla development team. This was based on what JIRA tickets were found in changesets checked into TFS by the development team. This aided the development and QA leads to make decisions on what needed to be included or excluded from potential releases, while also highlighting tickets that may have been missed during testing.- Took over release procedures to production environments for MyTesla, Tesla Scheduling System, Tesla Energy, Tesla Ecommerce, and Payment Gateway development teams, ensuring applications passed SOX compliance from application release standpoint.- Worked with Development, QA, and Systems Administration teams to roll out 6 new N-tier non-production environments, which were configured using Puppet and Jenkins. Took steps to reduce the time needed for deployment and configuration of the MyTesla application stack on a new environment from 3 weeks to 1 day.- Performed quarterly auditing of SOX-Compliant applications.- Automated pre-release and post-release process for the Tesla Scheduling System and MyTesla Systems. Also fully automated Tesla Scheduling System production releases.

As a Linux-stack Software Engineer implementing Continuous Delivery for Advertising and Data:- Implemented bash scripts to enable Yahoo to work more effectively when cloning jobs between Jenkins instances.- Implemented Continuous Delivery pipelines using Jenkins.As a Windows-stack Build and Release Engineer for Genome from Yahoo:- Created Orchestrator 2012 runbooks to automate deployments of ASP.NET websites to the QA Lab.- Optimized and Automated the Build, Configuration, and Deployment process using TFS 2010, Powershell, Windows Workflow Foundation 4.0, and C# for ASP.NET websites.- Created XDT Transform files to automate the process to update configuration files for Websites and Windows Services.- Handled TFS administration (security, source code management, etc.) and developed documentation to perform common TFS-related tasks in my absence.- Helped define and implement a Quality-Driven approach to deploying software by identifying opportunities to catch bugs before they got to production.- Developed utility programs and services others can use to save time when performing configuration and deployment tasks.- Utilized Lab Management (part of TFS 2010) to automatically create and manage QA Environments.- Created Hyper-V templates to shorten delivery time of Virtual Machines and Environments from 5 weeks to less than 4 hours.- Identified an opportunity to catch bugs before they went to production by defining and routinely performing a "Dry Run" process to test production deployments.- Performed multiple domain-to-different-domain TFS migrations.- Cleaned up and scaled out QA lab from 10 machines to 40+ machines, leading to faster hot fixes and drastically reducing the time to figure out where to test.

- Helped develop and document processes to setup, configure, and install a new product on new environments.- Performed Team Foundation Server 2010 administration tasks related to branching, security administration, and build configuration and deployment.

- Evaluated and Improved current Continuous Integration processes by implementing alternative techniques in existing tools (CruiseControl.NET).- Developed documentation to allow others to perform builds in my absence.- Pushed for gradual improvements in software quality by creating and enforcing standards regarding builds and deployments. - Found problems in current Continuous Integration process and developed solutions to fix the problems.- Monitored and maintained six test environments.- Aided in developing new processes and strategies to deliver team test environments so that one team's changes would not break other environments.
