  • Infrastructure-as-code and automated deployments with Terraform and CI/CD building/testing Docker images
  • Secure configuration management using Secrets Manager/SSM with IAM role-based access
  • Built AWS Glue ETL from S3 and RDS/Postgres to partitioned Parquet on S3 with crawlers and schema evolution handling
  • Operationalized pipelines with CloudWatch monitoring/alarms, retries, and SNS notifications for failures
  • Modernized SAS reporting into Python microservice; validated parity via side-by-side historical comparisons and stakeholder sign-off; reduced migration risk with feature flags and fallback
