Yogesh Lonkar is a pragmatic software engineer with around 10 years of experience building and automating production-grade systems, currently solving deployment pipelines, infrastructure automation, and developer experience at DAZN in Amsterdam. He combines strong backend skills in Go, Node.js and C with extensive DevOps expertise—especially Jenkins, scripted Groovy pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm and Terraform—to deliver reliable CI/CD and cloud automation across AWS and GCP. A hands-on contributor, he has developed multiple Jenkins and Jira plugins and extended the popular go-gitlab SDK to better support masked/hidden variables, showing attention to API correctness and test coverage. Yogesh favors Test Driven Development and clean code principles (DRY, YAGNI, refactoring), and brings an engineer’s toolset—Vim, Tmux, VSCode—alongside a restless curiosity for practical automation.

Contributions summary:Yogesh primarily focused on extending the GitLab Go SDK to include a "hidden" field within the `GroupVariable` and `ProjectVariable` structs. This involved modifying the data models and adding corresponding fields and options for creating and updating variables, including tests. The user then reverted the name to match the GitLab API specification, addressing the naming inconsistencies. The changes reflect feature enhancements related to group and project variables, including a focus on masked and hidden variables.
