Key Strengths

  • Built Python S3 utilities to replace s3fs-fuse and reduce inconsistent file-operation behavior
  • Implemented reliability patterns (exponential backoff) for AWS API/network failures
  • Modernized legacy logic with output-parity validation and parallel production runs (~1 month) to reduce migration risk
  • Production incident ownership: diagnosed client file-format failures and fixed root cause (Excel macro) to prevent recurrence
  • Contributed to cloud cost-reduction efforts (~$10k/month savings)
