PROFILE
Jonathan Perry
Worked on the defenseunicorns/uds-cli repository, delivering features and fixes that enhanced security, reliability, and maintainability across the CLI’s bundle management workflows. Over seven months, implemented secure signing for Zarf bundles, modernized packaging tooling, and improved dependency management using Go and YAML. Addressed critical bugs in bundle layer handling and digest referencing, introduced robust directory permission checks, and optimized CI/CD pipelines for stable releases. Upgraded key dependencies, including Zarf and Helm, to maintain compatibility and security. The work emphasized proactive maintenance, backward compatibility, and thorough testing, resulting in a more resilient backend and streamlined developer and operator experiences.

Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Delivered reliability and UX improvements for defenseunicorns/uds-cli. Implemented a Robust Directory Write Permissions Check for Bundle Management to ensure output directories are writable prior to bundle pull and creation, preventing permission-related failures in automation and deployments. Introduced Output Format Simplification for Templated Variables by removing the _not_found suffix, resulting in cleaner, more parseable outputs for automation and users. These changes reduce runtime errors, streamline pipelines, and improve developer and operator experiences.
