Projekthistorie
- developed concepts and infrastructure for structured logging, metrics and centralized data collection for cloud services and POS systems using OpenTelemetry and Dynatrace
- designed and optimized CI/CD pipelines and release processes for cloud and POS software, allowing confined and staged deployments
- designed and implemented automated Secure Boot certificate integration for Linux based POS systems for custom Kernel modules
- developed reusable Jenkins pipeline templates for automated RPM packaging of third-party software and drivers
- supported resilience testing and troubleshooting of production and test environments
Tools/Technologies: Kubernetes, Helm, Jenkins, OpenTelemetry, Dynatrace, Azure, Ansible, Secure Boot, RPM, Rocky Linux
- supported setting up a modern, secure cloud infrastructure stack on Microsoft Azure and enabled software development teams to deploy to this stack and utilize it
- implemented GitOps concepts with Flux, GitLab and Jenkins
- planned, coordinated and supported the migration of cloud infrastructure
- implemented ansible roles and bash scripts for automated installation and configuration of Linux-based point of sale (POS) systems
- created a tool to build and manage highly customized RPM package repositories for controlled software releases to POS systems
- collaborated and coordinated tasks with multiple teams (platform, cloud, software development, architecture, security, network, ..)
Terraform, Microsoft Azure, Kubernetes, Flux, Istio, Helm, Ansible, Python, Jenkins, Postgres, Podman, RPM
- implemented ansible roles and bash scripts for automated installation and configuration of
Linux-based point of sale (POS) systems - analyzed and fixed issues between the POS hardware, the operating system (OS) and the POS
applications - created a concept for staged releases of OS and POS related software packages to ensure
clearly defined and quality testable releases - contributed to concepts for software rollout, system maintenance, operations, security and
networking - created Jenkins pipelines for automated software and OS ISO builds
- developed a proof of concept to enable NFC based authentication on Linux using passkeys
- collaborated with DevOps, software development, security and network teams
