Work History

March 2026

12 Commits • 5 Features

Mar 1, 2026

March 2026 summary: Delivered substantial CI/CD modernization, code quality improvements, and collaboration tooling enhancements across three repositories. Key work focused on adopting Mise for CI, integrating testing and build steps directly into workflows, and replacing legacy task orchestration with Mise in both nais/naiserator and nais/liberator, leading to faster feedback and more reliable deployments. Implemented Go type-safety improvements (replacing interface{} with any), removed unused utilities, optimized string handling, and enhanced Kubernetes resource generation for robust, deterministic behavior. In navikt/ghep, improved Slack PR notifications (ignore drafts, correct ready-for-review handling, minimalist formats), fixed Vault-iac recognition, and raised documentation quality through clearer Readmes and standards adherence. These changes collectively reduce cycle times, improve deployment safety, increase observability, and improve developer onboarding and governance across the org.
