PROFILE

Ben Bettridge

Worked on Mentra-Community/MentraOS, delivering a microservices refactor that introduced per-service Docker containers and updated docker-compose configurations to improve deployment scalability and isolation. Enhanced backend reliability by implementing host-based inter-service communication and sanitizing cloud settings names to prevent authentication errors when app names contained dots. Addressed technical debt by removing outdated documentation and cleaning up unused Android modules, which reduced build size and improved maintainability. Resolved a merge conflict in the notify package index to ensure correct dependency imports. The work leveraged TypeScript, Docker, and Kotlin, focusing on backend development, build automation, and configuration management to strengthen system resilience.

March 2025 focused on scalability, reliability, and tooling hygiene for MentraOS. Delivered a microservices refactor with per-service Docker containers, updated docker-compose, and host-based inter-service communication to improve deployment velocity and isolation. Implemented cloud settings name sanitization to handle app names with dots, preventing 401 errors on load/save. Cleaned documentation by removing outdated cursor rules and local Docker workflow notes. Resolved a merge conflict in the notify package index to preserve correct imports and dependencies. Performed Android cleanup by removing unused IntentReceiverModule, reducing build size and clutter. Overall, the changes deliver measurable business value through improved scalability, resilience, and maintainability while expanding the team's technical capabilities in Docker, cloud config handling, and Android build hygiene.
