As a DevOps/AWS Engineer at Saber Astronautics, I have been instrumental in developing innovative solutions for satellite operations. I designed and implemented a satellite command application using AWS services, including SQS, SNS, and EKS, supported by a PostgreSQL backend to ensure reliable and efficient communication with spacecraft. My work involved building scalable AWS infrastructure to facilitate command sending and telemetry reception across global ground stations, integrating diverse messaging frameworks such as MQTT, ZMQ, and RabbitMQ.
