My first task was to form a DevOps-team using existing engineers.

I started by setting up a cross-functional team that performed routine maintenance tasks one day a week. I followed up by setting clear team-responsibilities and providing team with familiar processes such as refinements, retrospectives and roadmap meetings.

We succeeded in our goal to create a team that is supported by all disciplines throughout the entire organization.

In order to stimulate DevOps and allow teams to manage their own infra, I've promoted and put into use IaC and CaC tooling and pipelines.

To achieve this task, I designed the architecture and managed the hired help to create an MVP. After that, I acted as a Product Owner to develop and maintain the product in-house. I helped with documentation and interacted with teams to ensure a seamless onboarding experience.

Now, teams can deploy their Linux- and Windows-infra directly from Git.

Product backups were stored on an inadequate storage solution. As part of updated security and performance requirements a new system needed to be put in place. Teams had the wish to invidually scale storage to their needs.

I designed a solution that met all requirements. To get teams migrated I set up the migration plan so that the Product Owners could refine it with their team. I worked with all 20+ teams to solve bottlenecks and reported progress back to management.
