Team Leader
CurrentI have been blessed with the opportunity to lead two teams of up to six extremely qualified Senior Developers and a Junior.During my tenure (and I am not done yet), as Cloud Core and Cloud Platform Team Lead at Umbraco, I have been spearheading some quite important projects on Umbraco Cloud. My team has been delivering regional hosting of Umbraco Cloud, expanding operations into four regions, by introducing Infrastructure as Code, to every module of an existing Cloud Platform. Additionally, we have upgraded our platform technology by hosting all our Cloud Services in Kubernetes and enabled Cross-Team collaboration and Security via Azure API Management, taking the Umbraco Cloud Platform to the next level. Requiring both Project Management skills, and the ability to coordinate with stakeholders.We have stream-aligned shipping upgrades to thousands of customers every Tuesday by enabling product teams, to ship and manage upgrades seamlessly, across multiple regions, by automating processes and aligning processes.As a team leader, I am wearing many caps during the week, ranging from Developer and Architect to everything scrum master. In my current position, I am in charge of the staff, and responsibilities such as-Managing Backlogs, Coordinating Sprint Work, Facilitate maturing sessions, Facilitate Retrospectives and day-to-day operations- I am a Hiring Manager, and salary negotiator, Coaching Team members on 1:1's, and Employee planning Program (MUS)- Reporting to Platform Group Lead / Head of CloudIn my opinion, one of the biggest interests when working in software is understanding people and gathering people around common goals. When done with empathy and taking each person on your team into account, you can help each person become the best version of themself, thus making your team thrive. I have a huge passion to figure out what moves the individual and how to shape highly agile, performant, and coherent teams. And I can't wait to learn more!
