This is *not* our Rok.

I’m happy to announce a new addition to the Mozilla release engineering. This week, we are lucky to welcome Rok Garbas to the team.

Rok is a huge proponent of Nix and NixOS. Whether we end up using those particular tools or not, we plan to leverage his experience with reproducible development/production environments to improve our service deployment story in releng. To that end, he’s already working with Dustin who has also been thinking about this for a while.

Rok’s first task is to figure out how the buildbot-era version of clobberer, a tool for clearing and resetting caches on build workers, can be rearchitected to work with TaskCluster. You can follow along in bug 1174263 if you’re interested.

Welcome, Rok!
