PROFILE
Lawrence Stalder
Worked on the nymtech/nym-vpn-client repository to automate and secure the Windows build and release process for the Nym VPN desktop client. Developed a GitHub Actions-based CI/CD workflow using Bash, PowerShell, and YAML, enabling automated building, signing, and artifact management for Windows releases. Integrated support for development mode builds, managed signing keys and secrets, and orchestrated dependency installation and artifact uploads. Later, extended the workflow to include automated Extended Validation (EV) code signing via SSL.com, enhancing installer trust and reducing user friction. These improvements streamlined release cycles, improved supply-chain security, and strengthened compliance for Windows deployments.
