Hello Airship Community,
|
|
|
|
My name is Alex Bailey, and I'd like to announce my candidacy for the Airship
|
|
Technical Committee.
|
|
|
|
In 2015, I began my career working in AT&T's Cloud Engineering shop as a Scrum Master
|
|
where I've had the opportunity to lead many teams with many purposes, ranging from
|
|
cloud deployment automation to Openstack engineering. In leading these teams,
|
|
I've been able to work through, and observe, the challenges experienced by an
|
|
enterprise grade cloud development shop that led to the creation of Airship.
|
|
|
|
In late 2018, I was presented with the opportunity to take over as Scrum Master
|
|
for AT&T's Airship Scrum Team and immediately jumped on it. My responsibilities
|
|
as Scrum Master for this team initially consisted of leveraging Airship to
|
|
deliver AT&T's Network Cloud at scale, but in the past six months my focus has shifted.
|
|
I'm now responsible for a team of engineers entirely dedicated to the development of Airship 2.
|
|
|
|
In my time with this team, I've seen the Airship community make great strides and
|
|
significantly mature. Due to the nature of my current position, I feel I'm in
|
|
a great spot to help mature the community further and reduce some of our pain
|
|
points such as the high barriers to entry in the community that I'm sure we've all experienced.
|
|
As a member of the Technical Committee, I'll work with my partners
|
|
in the community and my direct scrum to form and implement solutions to our
|
|
current and future challenges.
|
|
|
|
I appreciate you taking the time to read this and your consideration for the position.
