PROFILE
Matyas Selmeci
Over thirteen months, contributed to the PelicanPlatform/pelican repository by engineering robust build, packaging, and deployment workflows focused on reliability and reproducibility. Leveraged skills in DevOps, containerization, and CI/CD to automate release processes, enforce dependency versioning, and standardize environments across Linux, macOS, and Docker. Used Go, Shell, and YAML to implement automated configuration generation, version pinning, and cross-platform build parity, reducing drift and deployment risk. Enhanced RPM and Docker packaging, improved systemd service consistency, and integrated GitHub Actions for collaborative CI pipelines. The work emphasized traceability, environment stability, and streamlined onboarding, resulting in more predictable and maintainable software delivery.

Jul 1, 2026July 2026 — PelicanPlatform/pelican: Delivered environment dependency version alignment to standardize builds across macOS and Docker. The key feature aligns the XRootD dependency to 5.9.6-1.2, ensuring parity between the macOS installation script and Docker container builds for reproducible environments. Major bugs fixed: none this month; focus was on stabilizing environments. Overall impact: smoother CI pipelines, faster developer onboarding, and fewer platform-specific build issues. Technologies/skills demonstrated: dependency management, cross-platform parity (macOS <-> Docker), Docker usage, version pinning, and traceability through commit references.

Apr 1, 2026February 2026? No, wait. This is 2026-04. Monthly summary for PelicanPlatform/pelican focusing on deployment reliability improvements. Delivered deployment version pinning for XRootD and xrootd-multiuser installations sourced from osg-testing, replacing Koji URL installs with pinned RPMs to ensure tested artifacts pass VMU smoke tests and reduce drift. Added *_RELEASE arguments for multiple dependencies to standardize packaging and improve reproducibility across environments. This work increases deployment reliability, shortens turnaround times for VM deployments, and enhances CI stability. Co-authored-by: Copilot on relevant commits.

Mar 1, 2026March 2026 monthly summary for PelicanPlatform/pelican: Implemented automated Goreleaser configuration generation and release workflow, enabling consistent multi-platform builds and packaging. Removed manual Goreleaser config and integrated generation into CI/CD, with Windows-specific adjustments to avoid WSL-related issues. This work included updates to Makefile, Dockerfile, and GitHub Actions, and a dedicated script to render .goreleaser.yml from a template with version substitution and RPM version handling. The changes reduce release drift and shorten release cycles.
