Trax Retail | DevOps Engineer

Boston, MA | May 2021 - Present

In my role at Trax Retail, I developed robust AWS EKS clusters, focusing on Terraform architecture for multi-environment deployments. I implemented autoscaling, reducing infrastructure costs by 25% and improving performance by 15%. My Terraform modules streamlined MySQL RDS database automation, and CI/CD integration into Terraform code enabled dynamic deployments. I also managed DNS via Kubernetes in AWS Route 53 and secured application data using AWS Secrets Manager, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and security.

Relativity | DevOps Engineer

Chicago, IL | April 2020 - May 2021

At Relativity, I managed AWS configurations and led the transition from monolithic structures to a microservices architecture using Docker and Kubernetes, enhancing workflow and scalability. I implemented EFK stacks for improved logging, developed a Lambda function for real-time Slack alerts, and automated tasks using Ansible Tower. My work in automating multi-account IAM roles with Terraform enhanced security and compliance across all operations.
