Danny Burke engineered AWS OpenSearch Serverless integration for the i-dot-ai/redbox repository, focusing on secure and maintainable infrastructure. Over two months, he delivered features that enabled listing, creating, and accessing OpenSearch Serverless APIs by defining targeted IAM permissions using Terraform and HCL. In November, Danny established foundational IAM roles to facilitate automated workflows and secure API interactions. In December, he refined these permissions by implementing least-privilege policies, replacing broad access with specific es:ESHttp* actions for ECS task execution roles. This approach reduced the security blast radius, improved compliance, and prepared the system for future audits and operational scalability.
