PROFILE

Alanmaydwell

Over a three-month period, contributed to the ministryofjustice/cloud-platform-environments repository by delivering four infrastructure features focused on governance, security, and scalability. Developed a DynamoDB autoscaler configuration to enforce capacity limits, improving resilience and cost control. Introduced a cross-environment DynamoDB audit table with encryption, autoscaling, and hardened IAM policies, enhancing auditability and reducing over-privilege. Implemented mandatory AWS resource tagging in Terraform, adding a service_area variable and CLI-driven enforcement to strengthen ownership mapping and cost tracking. Leveraged skills in AWS, Terraform, and Kubernetes, consistently applying infrastructure as code and cloud security best practices to support operational standards and compliance.
