PROFILE

James Baker

Worked on the ministryofjustice/cloud-platform-environments repository to deliver foundational infrastructure for the Address Matcher API, focusing on secure, scalable deployments and efficient resource management. Leveraged Terraform, Kubernetes, and AWS to implement ECR and S3 storage modules, robust CI/CD pipelines, and principled RBAC, integrating GitHub Actions and OpenID Connect for safer credential handling. Enhanced deployment reproducibility and maintainability by introducing dedicated development environments, aligning provider versions, and cleaning up unused resources. Emphasized infrastructure as code and disciplined change management, resulting in faster deployments, reduced operational toil, and streamlined configuration for address data workloads without introducing any new bugs during the period.
