Project: Bell Canada.

• Administered 15+ GitLab repositories and CI/CD pipelines for a large-scale telecom account (Bell Canada), ensuring consistent code quality, and uninterrupted delivery workflows.
• Executed end-to-end deployments across three environments (FIT, Pre-Prod, Production) using IBM UrbanCode Deploy, following structured deployment documents to maintain zero-deviation releases.
• Managed role-based GitLab access for 20+ developers, enforcing security policies, and ensuring audit-compliant repository governance.
• Led code merge operations and conflict resolution in GitLab, collaborating across project teams to maintain a clean, stable mainline branch ahead of every release cycle.
• Synchronized pre-production environments with the production baseline before and after each release, ensuring environment consistency across three or more deployment tiers.
• I drove the troubleshooting of environment and connectivity issues in coordination with DEV and external teams, consistently reducing downtime, preventing production incidents, and meeting release deadlines.
• Prepared and validated SFT and DIT environments ahead of each release cycle, supporting reliable test execution, and on-time sign-offs.
• Supported CCM (Change and Configuration Management) implementation, ensuring all changes followed ITIL-aligned change control processes.
• Ensured all environments were updated post-release, maintaining baseline integrity across the full deployment landscape for every project and release.
