You should apply to come work with me at Stack Exchange! Your profile/s likes are a really close match to what our likes are, minus the TDD aspect. We're hiring full stack devs: http://careers.stackoverflow.com/jobs/34229/full-stack-web-d...

I did find the lecture from your lead architect funny where he claimed testing was unnecessary when you've got Meta StackOverflow, where people will eagerly find your bugs for free and submit patches too! Pretty sweet deal you've got.

Thanks for the lead architect, but I am a mere developer :-)

Currently alot of custom stuff. Mainly in .NET with hosted Powershell. Chef also supports Windows as you found but support is abit too strong of a word sometimes. The reality is that Windows DevOps means rolling alot of your own and integrating back with the System Center suite, specifically Operations Manger, Configuration Manager and Virtual Machine Manager. What is nice about the Windows world is most of the core…

Wow, first time I've seen Virtual Machine Manager mentioned in the wild. I was on the original team that built that product at Microsoft. How long I fought for a real, native API :( Worst part was that there was a decent one hiding beneath the PowerShell layer that was not exposed.

Yeah.. I am currently loading that assembly up and using it from C#.. I am not sure of the licensing implications but it's not too bad once you wrap it abit.

VMM is actually great. As are the technologies that come with it. NVGRE and the new multi-tenant gateway (net compartments + BGP basically) is awesome.

Yeah, it's pretty fantastic. I recently did a talk about how we handled our mobile release process, and getting feedback from our Meta site (and having the feedback be public rather than to just one person) was a god send.

There's some extra details in the speaker notes (in the JS console) here: http://kasrarahjerdi.com/se-goes-mobile/#/7
