DevOps & delivery improvements

If releases rely on undocumented steps or the environment is difficult to reproduce, there is usually useful work to do around delivery. I help improve the route from application code to a running service.

The scope

Work we can discuss.

Cloud infrastructure, release pipelines, migrations and the servers your applications depend on.

  • Delivery workflow reviews
  • Infrastructure and environment automation
  • Repeatable release processes
  • Agreed validation and recovery steps
  • Team-usable documentation

Review the existing workflow

We look at how changes are built, tested, released and operated today. That includes repositories, environments, configuration and the decisions people make manually. The first improvement should address a real delivery problem.

Make agreed steps repeatable

The work can include infrastructure automation, environment configuration and deployment improvements. Building a pipeline is one part of the process; the checks and permissions around it matter too. The tools should suit the team and application.

Leave the process usable

Delivery documentation should explain how to release, identify a failure and recover from an unsuccessful change. Responsibilities and follow-up work are agreed clearly. This is scoped technical work, not an offer to join a team as a contractor.
