Here are some key accomplishments:• Infrastructure Provisioning: Gathering of organizational requirements and implementations of infrastructure-as-code solutions to provision staging and production environments on AWS. This included configuring VPCs, subnets, NAT Gateways, ELB, and more. Additionally, orchestrated the setup of a Kubernetes cluster with nginx ingress for load-balancing, oauth2-proxy for Single Sign-On, and cert-manager for certificate management.• Automation: Developed scripts to automate the deployment process of changes in both infrastructure and applications within the Kubernetes cluster. Leveraged Helm and Terraform for efficient app deployment and configuration.• Data Management: Built a data replication pipeline using self-managed Airbyte, enabling data analysis and BI operations for Sparqle in BigQuery, all atop the Kubernetes cluster.• Real-Time Event Handling: Implemented and deployed an EventAPI in Typescript, facilitating the production and consumption of real-time events related to riders and orders using Kafka in Redpanda. Reduced deployment time significantly by integrating automated deployment with AWS ECR and a CI/CD pipeline through Github Actions.• Schema Versioning: Developed a Typescript self-service tool to streamline AVRO schema versioning automatically, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in schema management.• Monitoring and Observability: Asisted in the configuration of the Prometheus and Grafana stack for monitoring and observability, ensuring good performance and reliability. Conducted stress tests and fine-tuned application resources to meet scalability requirements effectively. Show less

Assisted in development tasks and engaged in hands-on learning, diving into Kubernetes for advanced container orchestration. Deepened my understanding of Docker and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Additionally, worked on small projects using Python and Flutter.

I worked as an IT Infrastructure Administrator for the Education Faculty. As a part of a team of 4, our main task was to take care of most technological needs in the faculty, making sure everything worked smoothly. We also handled any problems that came up and made sure everything was well maintained.
