PROFILE

Jacob Ward

During February 2025, contributed to the stfc/SCD-OpenStack-Utils repository by developing an automated solution for managing Alertmanager silences. Built a Bash script that programmatically applies silences to alerts for specified hosts, integrating directly with the Alertmanager API. The script generates JSON payloads for hostname and instance matchers, prompts for an admin password to ensure secure operations, and calculates silence windows with a default duration of one day. This work focused on reducing alert noise and improving incident handling by enabling controlled maintenance windows. The project leveraged skills in API integration, shell scripting, and system administration, emphasizing traceable and secure automation.
