Ian Myers

Worked across multiple Corretto repositories to deliver stable, production-ready Java runtime releases, focusing on build engineering, patch management, and release automation. In corretto/corretto-21 and corretto/corretto-11, managed version bumps, changelog updates, and packaging compliance using Java, Gradle, and XML. Upgraded dependencies and improved build reliability in corretto/corretto-8 by refining C/C++ build systems and patch workflows. Addressed runtime correctness in corretto/corretto-17 by restoring GZIPInputStream behavior and updating release documentation. Emphasized traceable, low-risk releases with clear governance, leveraging skills in dependency management, error handling, and version control to ensure secure, maintainable distributions for diverse production environments.
