My greatest passion is helping a software team get their innovative genius into their users&#8217; hands quickly and with high quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m a huge believer in best-practices in DevOps, that the happiest customers (and happiest development teams) are the ones that apply the best practices in building and releasing their software. Those practices are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Efficient releases<\/li><li>Frequent releases  (aka Continuous Delivery)<\/li><li>Fast and frequent delivery of test information  (a strong part of Continuous Integration)<\/li><li>Self-service and automated workflows for developers<\/li><li>Infrastructure as code<\/li><li>Scalability and Elasticity<\/li><li>Building communities of practice<\/li><li>Psychologically safe teams<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These practices are roled out by the DORA team at Google. I&#8217;ve been a part of making these changes on my teams. These types of practices make happier users. They even make happier development teams: DORA research has proven that these practices lead to better work-life balance. We can all take joy in these kinds of changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My tool chest of technologies includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Jenkins, Pipeline\/Groovy<\/li><li>Scripting: Python, Perl, Bash, Windows-batch<\/li><li>Git\/Github, Subversion<\/li><li>Ansible<\/li><li>Artifactory<\/li><li>AWS and CloudFormation<\/li><li>Git, Subversion<\/li><li>&#8230; and all the REST API&#8217;s of the above, where applicable<\/li><li>C\/C++ Software Development and Testing<\/li><li>Eagerness to collaborate and learn with every challenge<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>My eagerness to help software teams be their best extends somewhat beyond Build and Release Engineering. At my core is a desire to help software teams and individual contributors be at their highest potential. Each team and each person is in a different place for reaching that potential, and I&#8217;m eager to help others reach it, either technologically or interpersonally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a role on your team for these goals, reach out on LinkedIn!<br>         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tylerwintermace\/\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tylerwintermace\/<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommended reading for your software team:<br>         <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/devops\/state-of-devops\/\">https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/devops\/state-of-devops\/<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m currently looking for a place to plug in my passion for Build &amp; Release Engineering.
