Andrew D. Bruce

I develop proprietary software for .NET (C#) and Mobile (Kotlin/Swift/Objective-C). I created and manage the entire system automated build / integration testing leveraging Azure DevOps for hosting. My daily tasks include leading Team developers, developing backend cross-platform libraries for delivery to other software Teams, generating monthly sprint software releases and demonstrating sprint releases to stakeholders. My solutions rely heavily on test-driven development and maintaining automated developer-specific environments which can be spun up or down on a single command. I write much of the software technical documentation delivered to the wider Team in addition to maintaining up-to-date READMEs for each of the library projects I am responsible for.
