PROFILE

Nicholas Ly

Worked on the DTS-STN/canadian-dental-care-plan and DTS-STN/vacman repositories, delivering five features over four months focused on backend configuration, DevOps, and service implementation. Introduced auditing to the address validation service to improve traceability by logging user IDs for each request, and streamlined feature management by removing deprecated flags. Enhanced testing and deployment workflows by configuring session parameters and detailed logging for UAT2, and upgraded frontend production deployments using GitOps and Kubernetes. In the VacMan backend, enabled default Git properties generation to standardize build metadata collection. Utilized Shell, TypeScript, and YAML to implement robust configuration and deployment improvements.
