Learnings from building Custom MDM
summary
Built a lightweight Custom MDM that automates tablet setup with a Custom ROM, preinstalls system apps and a legacy flash APK, and remotely pushes app and content updates to clinics across the US. Deployment targets include about 600 devices running a single foreground content app that must stay up with very high uptime. Engineering uses Continuous Delivery and feature toggles to ship often, experiment, and rollback; gaps in monitoring cause a major outage that forces redesign of health checks and telemetry.
