Automation Engineer
Aries Security, LLC.Automation Engineer
Nov. 2018San Francisco Bay AreaI was brought in at Aries to turn a disparate build and deployment process into a unified system. In working with the PM,Dev, & Ops teams I created a standardized set of process and tools integrating Git ,Gradle & Jenkins, with their product management tool that simplified the build & release process while at the same time increased security, repeatability, & automated testing capabilities. This led to a reduction in build deployment turn around time, deeper understanding of client deployment level, & shortened development QA cycles. Additionally, with the implementation of automated unit tests & common weakness evaluation tests, developers now had better visibility of areas of code that needed enhanced security as well as the upgrade of outdated libraries to reduce vulnerabilities.
