Andrew Hochheiden contributed to the mozilla/gecko-dev, mozilla/glean, and servo/stylo repositories by delivering features and fixes that improved build reliability, developer velocity, and code maintainability. He modernized Python toolchains, upgraded vendored dependencies, and enhanced compatibility for Python 3.9 and newer, using Python, Rust, and Gradle. In mozilla/glean, Andrew optimized the Gradle plugin for performance and configuration-cache compatibility, reducing build times and stabilizing CI. For servo/stylo, he standardized code formatting by migrating to ruff-format, aligning with linting workflows. His work demonstrated depth in build automation, dependency management, and cross-platform debugging, resulting in more robust and maintainable systems.
March 2026 focused on stabilizing telemetry logging on Windows for the Glean project. Implemented a Windows-native handle conversion to fix log pipe corruption, resulting in more reliable telemetry data and fewer Windows-related log failures. This work supports business goals of robust telemetry, improved customer experience, and reduced support issues.
