Designed and built a common infrastructure in C++ to be used by several teams in AQI. Greatly improved the runtime, reliability and debuggability of the existing infrastructure. Designed and implemented an approval mechanism for blessing expected diffs in A/B tests. Expected diffs caused a lot of failures on our continuous build pipelines causing oncall pain and delaying our releases. Built a reliable and concurrent system to allow users to safely bless expected changes before submitting their changelists thus improving continuous build greenness.
