Aug 2023 – Aug 2024 · 1 yr · London, United Kingdom · Remote

• Built the infrastructure team at Quandle. Planned, designed and implemented infra solutions for the application and its underlying platform
• Designed the architecture of the infra and implemented CI/CD pipelines via Github Actions and AWS CodePipeline
• Deployed a custom observability stack for detection of runtime production issues (across 30+ modules) and monitor the application via health checks
• Dockerized various tools of the application to run state-less serverless functions breaking up the monolith and saving upwards of 30,000$ on annual GPU costs
• Revamped the queue (SQS) based architecture of the application to remove latency and message loss
• Coded a lightweight metrics-based autoscaler in JavaScript with features like kill-switches and global deployment
