Employment
Experience
- SaaS Solution for Nomad
A Ruby on Rails application to allow developers to deploy pre-packaged applications to a Nomad Cluster via WebUI, CLI, or REST interface. This provides a self-service solution for developers to quickly set up software or database backends preconfigured following best practice guidelines.
- CockroachDB - An Operator for Kubernetes
A Kubernetes operator to manage Cockroach databases. The development team wanted to deploy on-demand feature environments within their Agile development process. To fit the handling of database instances into this project, I created an operator for Kubernetes to manage those databases and it ran flawlessly from day one.
