Developed and deployed an automated production PostgreSQL shutdown and startup workflow for the hmcts/auto-shutdown repository, focusing on reducing idle database usage and improving operational resilience. Leveraging YAML-driven CI/CD pipelines and GitHub Actions, the work introduced a dedicated job to automatically stop the production PostgreSQL flexible server when not in use and ensured reliable startup when needed. Additionally, a critical typo in the production workflow was corrected to prevent failed startups. This automation enhanced cost efficiency and reliability of production database operations, demonstrating skills in automation, DevOps, and server management while addressing both feature delivery and bug resolution.
