Worked on the communitiesuk/prsdb-webapp repository over a two-month period, focusing on both deployment architecture and user experience improvements. Delivered two Architecture Decision Records using Markdown to document strategies for managing application images in AWS ECR and deploying updates via ECS, providing a clear framework for future infrastructure changes and onboarding. Applied Terraform and CI/CD practices to support cloud infrastructure governance. Additionally, enhanced user communication by refining error messaging for invalid links, addressing internationalization concerns and reducing user confusion. Demonstrated disciplined, PR-driven collaboration and maintained product stability while implementing targeted updates in Java and cloud-native environments.
