PROFILE

Ben Mosher

Worked on dbt-core to deliver robust atomic binary updates with interrupt cleanup, ensuring that the live binary remains consistent and automatically removing partial installs if updates are interrupted. This approach used Unix shell scripting to implement atomic file operations and cleanup logic, reducing deployment downtime and post-update troubleshooting. In the git-town repository, addressed a bug where HEAD activity was misclassified for bare repositories across worktrees, improving branch management accuracy and user experience. Demonstrated skills in DevOps, Git, and system administration, with a focus on reliable update workflows, cross-repository collaboration, and clear state handling using Shell and JSON.
