I started at Malwarebytes as a RoR developer strictly. I spent countless hours increasing test coverage from 24 to 95+ percent. I eventually took over Devops for my group and spent a lot of time in AWS. I also redesigned the event system to use Fluent brokers. This not only separated concerns but it also solved a major issue; every time Influxdb would go.

90% of my time was Ruby / Ruby on Rails development on the main backend authentication systems. I also began developing an OSX OpenDirectory setup that would allow multiple companies to simultaneously share a single directory (built in Linux) without colliding. I was successful in that project, however I left the company before it was ever integrated into.

At Demandbase, developers built and managed their own environments in AWS alongside their applications. I enjoyed this as I knew my application well, what it needed, and when to tweak it if needed. We ran both continuous integration and continuous deployment. The app would auto-deploy on regular intervals. I spent 99% of my time here in Ruby, Rails.
