In this episode we chat with Chris Patterson, Microsoft Program Manager about all things Team Build.

Chris has been in the software industry for more than 15 years. In that time he has worked on a variety of projects at companies ranging from startups to telecom.

For the past 10 years he has worked as a Program Manager on Team Foundation Server at Microsoft.  During that time he has focused on developer tools and ALM, working on Visual Studio Load Test and Microsoft Test Manager. 

Most recently he worked on the rewrite of Team Build for Visual Studio Online and TFS 2015. 

In his spare time he volunteers as the Cubmaster for his son’s cub scout pack focusing on building character and leadership in the boys through outdoor skills and activities.
