Worked on the hotosm/tasking-manager repository to deliver robust cloud infrastructure and deployment automation over six months. Established reproducible development and production environments using Terraform, Terragrunt, and AWS services such as ECS, ALB, and RDS, enabling scalable, cost-efficient operations. Enhanced infrastructure reliability by tuning ECS auto-scaling, refining security controls, and standardizing environment tagging. Integrated observability tools like New Relic and Sentry for improved monitoring and debugging. Addressed data pipeline efficiency through frontend JavaScript changes and resolved scaling bugs to ensure stable deployments. Collaborated through infrastructure-as-code practices, leveraging Docker, HCL, and Python to streamline onboarding, incident response, and ongoing feature delivery.
May 2026 highlights: Stabilized infrastructure scaling for the hotosm/tasking-manager by implementing an ECS downscaling bounds fix. This targeted change ensures proper scale-down behavior, reducing the risk of no-downscaling during utilization dips and improving deployment reliability. The work was delivered via a PR that updated ECS scale-down bounds, with the fix referenced by commit 180f62c9bdab9ab8b3a7eac64a39de778dbf7006.
