• Lead engineering efforts to migrate several legacy applications from EC2 instances to docker containers running on Amazon EKS supported by spot instances. These efforts resulted in simplified and standardized deployments at a fraction of the cost of the legacy infrastructure. • Built dynamic feature environments for all core applications that enabled developers to test their code in an isolated environment that resembled production. Eliminated deployment pipeline bottlenecks and increased release velocity. • Improved legacy application CI/CD pipelines by migrating them from Jenkins to CircleCI and Harness, resulting in fully automated build and deploy pipelines that reduced release oversight and increased release velocity from one release a day to four or more.• Designed infrastructure for next generation Ad Platform utilizing serverless architecture composed of Amazon API Gateway, Lambda, CloudFront, and S3 in addition to docker containers running on kubernetes. • Implemented continuous verification of artifact builds using Dynatrace which prevented software bugs from being deployed to production and increased confidence in automated deployment pipelines. • Implemented infrastructure as code using Terraform to enforce version control for all infrastructure components and eliminate infrastructure drift between pre-production and production environments.• Automated QA regression testing by integrating testing into CI and CD pipelines, resulting in automated rollout of verified builds to production.• Integrated application and container security scanning into build pipelines to remediate security vulnerabilities before they get deployed.

• Lead the project to migrate Beachbody’s NodeJS based video streaming platform from EC2 instances to docker containers running on Amazon EKS.• Migrated artifact build jobs from Jenkins to Travis CI which greatly reduced build complexity and reduced application builds times.• Migrated deployment jobs from Jenkins to Harness in order to implement automated feature environments and create a CD platform for production deployments. • Integrated application performance monitoring using Dynatrace into deployment pipelines in order to identify application deployment issues and automate roll backs. • Reduced configuration drift on stateful systems by implementing infrastructure as code which ensured consistent environments across non-production and production infrastructure.

• Implemented configuration management tools to reduce VM provisioning time and application deployment/configuration.• Secured legacy application communication with ecommerce gateway companies via a load balanced proxy solution.• Reduced tech debt and vendor licensing costs by migrating off of legacy load balancer appliances to open source solutions.• Implemented centralized logging and monitoring solutions to increase uptime and reduce incident response times.• Reduced attack surface to production databases by implementing a multi-layered security approach.• Migrated backend systems off of a legacy SAN which improved application performance by up to 50%.• Worked with Oracle DBAs to performance tune SQL queries to improve application performance.• Standardized patch management of operating systems, databases, applications, HMCs, physical servers and storage technologies to reduce risk to company infrastructure

• Lead documentation initiative that resulted in documentation being created for every major backend service.• Migrated off of legacy business intelligence tool onto a modernized solution which provided a better user experience for the end user.• Automated system maintenance processes using scripting languages to reduce administrative load.• Eliminated delay in order fulfillment workflows in backend systems by restructuring message queue layout.• Reclaimed unused disk space by restructuring disk layout on production and test database servers which saved the company from spending more money on storage.• Managed backups for production databases, servers and applications.
