Designed and implemented a software platform utilizing GitOps and Kubernetes (EKS) on Fargate to host applications for a scalable development team facilitating cloud native applications in a multi-account AWS set up.Built continuous delivery pipelines to facilitate continuous delivery of applications utilizing GitOps into the EKS cluster utilizing GitHub Actions.Implemented a resilient lambda deployment model using aliases and versions to support rollback and canary testing alongside continuous deliveryImplemented SOC2 controls and reporting and processes to prepare and support the company for SOC2 auditsEngaged with penetration testers to rapidly fix and secure vulnerabilitiesMentored and taught junior engineers in software engineering concepts including API design, debugging distributed applications with APM and intelligent logging, test driven development, and rudimentary OAuth/JWT/OIDC.Engaged in prioritizing work and took point to lead epics across the finish line to production for critical business features.Conducted security audits and prioritization for remediation of cloud configuration.Provisioned (and mentored others in provisioning) cloud infrastructure through infrastructure-as-code (terraform)Set up highly available networks in AWS utilizing transit gateways as an alternative to VPC peering to segregate data in development networks from data in production networks, while supporting tooling that can be used from multiple environments.Designed and prototyped multi-tenant solutions to support testing and development against production systems with isolated data setsDesigned and implemented a data lake on AWS utilizing S3, Athena and GlueDeveloped new microservices using Spring Boot written in Kotlin to migrate the legacy monolith from Node written in TypeScriptOperated, maintained, and released updates to a NodeJS monolithic API written in TypeScript while migrating from it to a new cloud native service architecture.

Implemented project onboarding for GCP from Service Now, including the infrastructure and platform components, to speed up engineering teams from a large company onboarding into the cloud with appropriate guard rails.Modernized financial processes and analysis through the creation of a data lake to facilitate reducing unnecessary cloud spend on compute resources such as Kubernetes nodes and Compute instances across multiple clouds (Azure and AWS).Migrated an application from an alternative cloud provider to AWS running on EKS utilizing Fargate, Aurora with Postgres and Redis on Elasticache to facilitate better scaling. Utilized GitOps (ArgoCD) to facilitate rapid easy deployment with an audit trail. Configured EKS to support IAM permissions using IRSA (instance level IAM roles).Created a micro-service application in AWS striving to reimagine health care by providing objective based personal health care to incentivize preventative health instead of reactionary. Using serverless-first tools like API gateway, Lambda and DynamoDB. Implemented and maintained pipelines running in GitLab to enable continuous deployment, while using infrastructure as code (terraform) to deploy cloud resources for application teams.
