# summary.yml

I run build and deploy pipelines for a team of 22 engineers. Over the last 3 years I cut our average CI run from 18 minutes to 6 and moved 40+ services from hand rolled scripts to a shared Terraform module. I like a quiet on call week, and I keep the runbooks boring on purpose.

  • Rebuilt the deploy pipeline on GitHub Actions and Argo CD, taking mean time to production from 42 min to 11 min across 40 services.
  • Wrote a shared Terraform module now used by 6 teams, which dropped drift incidents from about 9 per quarter to 1.
  • Set up SLO based alerting that trimmed pager noise by 63%, so the on call rotation gets roughly 2 real wakeups a month instead of 12.

  • Migrated 120+ VMs to a Kubernetes platform over 14 months, cutting hosting spend by 28%.
  • Built the first internal status page and incident timeline tool, adopted by 4 product teams.
  • Reduced failed nightly backups from 5% to 0.2% by rewriting the retry and verification job.
↻ attempt 2 of 2 · 2021 was rough: a datacenter move plus a team of 3 leaving at once. Attempt 1 stalled (2 delayed launches). Re-run after I owned the migration plan end to end: 2 quarters later both launches shipped and the stage went green.

  • Graduated with a 7.8/10 average; thesis on automated rollback strategies for blue/green deploys.
  • Ran the student Linux user group for 2 years, about 30 members.
