PROFILE

Hernâni Borges De Freitas

Worked on the openeuropa/oe_theme repository, delivering a series of backend and DevOps improvements over five months. Focused on enhancing CI/CD reliability by migrating pipelines from Drone CI to GitLab CI and introducing automated release artifact creation using GitHub Actions. Addressed patch transformation stability by implementing rate-limiting and batching to mitigate GitHub API errors, and streamlined dependency management by removing patch-based Composer packages. Leveraged PHP, Docker, and YAML to optimize workflows, reduce manual intervention, and improve build consistency. The work emphasized maintainability, reproducibility, and faster feedback cycles, resulting in more predictable releases and simplified upgrade paths for the project.
