Software Engineer → DevOps Engineer
Moved into a DevOps role after demonstrating impact on the project. Advocated for and implemented modern technologies to accelerate development — instead of maintaining 17-year-old Java enterprise patterns, pushed for modern tooling and practices.
Built CI/CD pipelines, automated deployment processes, and helped the team ship faster with fewer production incidents.
Joined as a fresh graduate on a 16-year legacy system management project. Started as a base software engineer, but quickly identified opportunities to improve processes and reduce complexity.
Had opinions, shared them, and backed them up with results. This led to the transition into DevOps and eventually influenced how the team approached new feature development.
