Tasked with building out the entire department. I facilitated all processes, technologies, timelines, and hiring.
My first focus was to put in place a solid foundation for how we work. This involved implementing appropriate devops solutions, including: a git workflow, designating approved frameworks, created kanban boards and gantt charts.
