Development Approach

Agile Sprints

Organized development into functional sprints delivering working software demonstrated to stakeholders at completion

Continuous Integration

All development flows through hardened CI/CD pipelines with automated security scans, static analysis, and SBOM generation

AI-Accelerated Development

Leverage AI and LLMs (where permitted) to accelerate testing, documentation, code generation, and code analysis

Offline-First Architecture

For shipboard disconnected environments: intelligent edge caching, local transaction queuing, automatic synchronization

Quality & Security Built-In

Automated Testing

Comprehensive unit, integration, and end-to-end testing with automated regression suites ensuring reliability across releases.

Static Code Analysis

Automated scanning with SonarQube, Fortify, and other tools to identify vulnerabilities, code smells, and technical debt early.

Dynamic Testing

OWASP ZAP and other DAST tools identify runtime vulnerabilities including XSS, SQL injection, and authentication issues.

Code Review Process

Peer review on all changes with merge request workflows, automated checks, and senior developer approval gates.
