Prateek Sharma developed and maintained Terraform modules for IBM watsonx services, focusing on automation, security, and governance across multiple repositories such as terraform-ibm-watsonx-ai and terraform-ibm-rag-sample-da. He engineered production-ready infrastructure as code solutions using Go, HCL, and Bash, enabling automated provisioning, scalable deployments, and secure access management. His work included implementing CI/CD pipelines, enhancing test reliability, and integrating cloud security features like KMS encryption. By addressing regional availability, automating collaborator management, and establishing end-to-end deployment workflows, Prateek delivered robust, maintainable modules that improved deployment consistency, reduced operational risk, and accelerated onboarding for enterprise cloud environments.
March 2026: Delivered a new Customer Care Generative AI deployment workflow and CI/CD pipeline in the terraform-ibm-rag-sample-da repository. The work introduces a configurable deployment for a customer-care generative AI application, integrating automation scripts and configurations for Watson services (Discovery and Machine Learning), and establishes an end-to-end CI/CD pipeline to streamline deployment, maintenance, and governance. A security fix was applied to the provisioner to avoid token exposure, improving security posture in automated deployments. Overall, this work accelerates time-to-value for AI-powered customer care use cases, increases reliability, and demonstrates strong automation, security, and cloud-engineering capabilities.

November 2025 monthly summary for terraform-ibm-modules/stack-retrieval-augmented-generation. Implemented a critical regional availability correction by removing ca-tor from the IBM catalog due to lack of support for watsonx Assistant and watson Discovery, preventing misconfigurations and unsupported service usage. This change reduces customer confusion, support tickets, and deployment failures by ensuring modules only reference regions with supported services. The work strengthens deployment reliability and aligns with product quality expectations for Terraform modules interfacing with IBM Cloud services.
