PROFILE

Michael Usher

Worked on backend and DevOps improvements across two major repositories over a two-month period. In aquasecurity/trivy-operator, focused on reliability and observability by ensuring ServiceMonitor deployments are consistently created when enabled, regardless of Kubernetes API version, and clarified configuration logic and documentation to reduce onboarding friction. For bitwarden/server, delivered a Trusted Networks Configuration feature, enabling administrators to designate entire networks as trusted, streamlining access control and reducing manual IP management. Leveraged ASP.NET Core, C#, Helm, and Kubernetes, demonstrating depth in backend development and infrastructure automation while addressing both operational reliability and enterprise security requirements through targeted, maintainable code changes.
