• •Implemented automated Datadog WAF rules for XSS/SQLi detection, lowering vulnerabilities 60% and enabling automated trace-based actions.
• •Standardized Terraform and GitLab CI/CD pipelines across 5 AWS accounts, boosting provisioning 25% and reducing deployment errors 30%.
• •Championed reusable IaC modules and cost-optimization practices adopted by 3 teams, saving $3K monthly and improving platform consistency.

• •Automated Terraform + Python workflows across CI/CD, monitoring, compute, and data systems, boosting deployment speed 15% and reducing manual tasks 20%.
• •Migrated on-prem workloads to AWS with 99.9% uptime and added Python-based health checks for continuous validation.
• •Supported CI/CD pipelines + AWS configs for cross-functional teams, improving reliability and environment consistency.

Serverless AI-compliant data pipeline for automated analytics and model experimentation.

• •Reduced ETL runtime 40% using automated schema discovery with Glue Crawlers and Athena.
• •Implemented Macie-driven PII detection + masking across 1 TB+ PostgreSQL exports for compliance and audit readiness.
• •Orchestrated event-driven Lambda pipelines with S3 lifecycle rules to reduce storage costs 20%.

Secure artifact-distribution platform supporting private and public release workflows.

• •Delivered 500+ monthly artifacts using Lambda, API Gateway, S3, CloudFront, and Route 53.
• •Integrated Cognito and IAM RBAC for secured access and auditing, reducing access-ticket overhead 25%.
