PROFILE

Jamie Mcconnell

Jamie McConnell engineered automated cloud infrastructure and deployment solutions across several HMCTS repositories, including cnp-flux-config, dlrm-data-ingest-infra, and hmc-cft-hearing-service. He delivered Terraform-based infrastructure as code for Azure resources, enabling reproducible PostgreSQL and Event Hub environments with improved governance and auditability. Jamie integrated FluxCD and Helm for Kubernetes deployment automation, modernized CI/CD pipelines, and implemented conditional import strategies to safely manage pre-existing resources. His work emphasized state management, security hardening, and environment-specific configuration, using HCL, YAML, and Terraform. The depth of his contributions is reflected in robust, scalable workflows that reduce manual drift and support future platform growth.
