PROFILE

Thom Neale

Developed and enhanced automated version checking systems for the cisagov/ScubaGear repository over a two-month period, focusing on maintainability and proactive update management. Delivered a PowerShell-based notification system that checks for newer releases on both the PowerShell Gallery and GitHub, with opt-out functionality via environment variables and comprehensive documentation updates. Subsequently, refactored the version check mechanism to consolidate logic, improve error handling, and migrate release validation to GitHub Releases using System.Version for robust comparisons. Leveraged skills in PowerShell scripting, API integration, and version control to streamline update workflows, reduce manual intervention, and align release processes with continuous integration standards.
