● Reduced toil for engineering teams by automating manual processes such as capturing custom AMI build processes, on-boarding of new cloud accounts, and provisioning of OIDC credentials through Terraform.● Devised and implemented an enterprise solution for using Terraform at scale, including using Terraform Modules in a private registry, testing of modules with Terratest, and introducing “meta” Terraform that configured Terraform Cloud itself.● Migrated legacy IaC cloudFormation to Terraform, increasing the trust in IaC processes by having a shared place to discuss IaC changes, providing visibility and auditability to the change process, and increased security by utilizing OIDC.● Introduced testing to the most sensitive infrastructure, discovering previously unknown issues, and provided and implemented solutions to close those gaps.● Wrote and maintained shared GitHub Actions and Workflows used across the enterprise, keeping repeatable tasks DRY and free from error.
