Over four months, contributed to the CMSgov/beneficiary-fhir-data repository by building and enhancing infrastructure and deployment workflows. Delivered Prometheus JMX metrics exposure for Java applications to improve observability, and implemented ECS EventBridge monitoring to centralize ECS cluster event logging in CloudWatch. Developed the BenePrefs service with SNS-based notifications, cross-account IAM roles, and DynamoDB persistence, while strengthening security through SOPS hardening and dependency updates. Improved deployment reliability by introducing Terraform state S3 bucket versioning, lifecycle management, and a force-unlock mechanism, alongside Slack integration for real-time deployment notifications. Work demonstrated proficiency in Terraform, AWS, Bash, and security best practices.
Monthly summary for 2026-04: Focused on stabilizing Terraform state management and deployment reliability for CMSgov/beneficiary-fhir-data, with visibility enhancements through Slack notifications. Delivered versioning and lifecycle for Terraform state buckets, a force-unlock mechanism for Tofu deployments, and real-time deployment status updates to Slack.
