My Name is Scott Ocamb

I have been delivering software solutions since the 1980's. I have consulted at many firms, large and small. This has exposed me to both the good and the bad in the software world. Seeing things done right and perhaps more importantly wrong gives me a unique perspective on delivering software.

Coaching

Adapting to Agile can be risky. I understand the tenants of Agile and how to adapt them to each customer’s unique situation.

DevOps

DevOps is a natural extension of Agile. I have experience implementing DevOps pipelines and integrating it into an agile software delivery process.

Scrum Master

Scrum is the most popular agile process used for software delivery. I have experience leading successful Scrum teams to their destination.

Dev Ops Lab

I have developed an end-to-end example of a Dev Ops Pipeline. Have a look, and schedule a free in person meeting to discuss the details.

I offer my services in Agile Coaching, Dev Ops and as Scrum Master. I have a long history of happy customers and successful projects. I am confident that I can make a difference at your firm and your team. Contact Me today to discuss your software delivery needs.
