During a two-month period, Androndo developed and enhanced backup and release automation features for the cozystack/cozystack repository. He implemented a Velero-based BackupJobs controller and a RestoreJob controller to manage Kubernetes backup and restore workflows, expanding coverage to virtual machine workloads and improving reliability. Androndo overhauled the BackupClass API, introducing cross-namespace references, immutable policies, and robust reconciliation logic using Go and YAML. He automated changelog generation with Gemini AI in GitHub Actions, streamlining release communication and reducing manual effort. His work emphasized scalable API design, CI/CD automation, and user-focused UI enhancements, resulting in deeper operational stability and maintainability.

December 2025 was focused on strengthening release transparency, automation, and Kubernetes data protection. Key features delivered include: release notes/documentation updates for v0.38.3/v0.38.4 (main project) and v0.39.0/v0.39.1 (Cozystack), and an automated changelog workflow that uses Gemini AI in GitHub Actions to generate changelogs for tagged releases. A Velero-based BackupJobs controller was implemented to manage Kubernetes backups with a Velero strategy and a functional Reconcile implementation. Impact: clearer, faster release communication; reduced manual effort in changelog maintenance; improved backup coverage and reliability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: CI/CD automation, AI-assisted tooling, GitHub Actions, Velero, Kubernetes operators/controllers, Go.
