Things I've built, broken, fixed, and occasionally shipped to production. Here's the highlight reel!
Building a Streamlit-based internal dashboard for FICO's Managed File Transfer platform to enable real-time file transfer monitoring and workflow management.

Improving the Kubernetes SIG Release Handbook based on gaps identified while serving as Release Doc Lead for v1.35. Adding practical examples, effective strategies, and clearer guidance for future release doc teams.
Led the design and implementation of FICO's internal Managed File Transfer system—a scalable, secure, and high-performance infrastructure built with AWS, Terraform, and Python. Serving as a customer-facing alternative to AWS Transfer Family, this system is now adopted across the organization. Worked closely with internal stakeholders to translate complex customer file-transfer requirements into automated ETL workflows, with full production deployment ownership.
Spearheaded migration from Terraform to Kubernetes-native infrastructure as code (IaC) using Crossplane, revolutionizing deployment processes across the department. Automated configuration management with Crossplane's reconciliation loop, eliminating infrastructure drift and reducing maintenance overhead. Architected and deployed GitOps workflow with Argo CD that transformed infrastructure provisioning for developers from a 2-week process to 5-10 minutes through self-service GitHub repositories and automated synchronization.
