Jobs with Details
Jacobs Engineering
Industry: Department of Defense. This included Space Force and Air Force

Detail List of Accomplishments:
I developed an agile SDLC environment in a traditionally waterfall delivery space
  • This includes creating five agile release trains (ARTs)
  • Hired and trained 25 agile leadership staff
    • Including training and certifying 4 new SAFe Practice Consultants (SPCs)

I lead the delivery of  four distinct software packages that were at least six years behind schedule
  • This included updating the software to meet the current environment

I led the creation of a new and lean DevSecOps pipeline that created more automation while following the regulations of a secured environment

I guided our government customer to be more receptive and open a leaner method of delivery
  • We used less paperwork and reporting for unused forms, reducing development cost by about 1 million dollars per year
    • This also allowed the engineering to stay focused on the development, reducing holding costs
  • This also allowed for faster build and test cycles for faster feedback
    • Reducing the overhead cost of testing by $300,000.00 and the rework time by 35%

I added the use of a UI/UX expert to modernize the products to match the end user and our future needs

I Created flow and value based metrics that allowed us to gain a greater percentage of our award fees
  • The new metric was based on value delivered and not % complete (which is easily modified)
  • I was able to add an additional $750,000.00 in award fee as a result of this change
