IBM DevOps

A DevOps platform put a customer's whole operation in front of them — real-time, historical, and planned. The catch: it was spread across many, many disconnected pages. Everything was there; seeing it whole was the problem.

So I designed the single pane of glass — one page that pulls those scattered views and elements into something a team can actually read, from the macro shape of an operation down to a single detail. I worked the information architecture and the interface, set the acceptance criteria, and prototyped it. The data side meant proposing the model the page would draw from — the structure, not the plumbing.

A DevOps platform is only worth opening if you can take it in at a glance. Whether my version is the one that shipped, I couldn't tell you — that wasn't mine to decide. The win I was after wasn't more screens. It was the one that finally held the whole picture.
