Khristiania Raihan engineered and maintained cloud infrastructure for the ministryofjustice/modernisation-platform-environments repository, delivering automation, security, and observability improvements over six months. She implemented features such as Airflow orchestration, SCRAM-authenticated SFTP access, and robust Lambda-based workflows, using Terraform and AWS services including Lambda, CloudWatch, and IAM. Her work included refactoring IAM roles, enhancing deployment pipelines, and introducing dead-letter queues for reliable messaging. By standardizing resource naming, expanding monitoring, and optimizing retry logic, Khristiania reduced operational risk and improved maintainability. Her technical depth is evident in the breadth of infrastructure as code, cloud engineering, and DevOps practices applied throughout the platform.
February 2026: Focused on reliability and maintainability improvements in ministryofjustice/modernisation-platform-environments. Delivered two features: CloudWatch Alarm Threader Configuration Refactor and MDSS Event Queue Retry Limit Increase; no major bugs fixed this month. These changes enhance observability, fault tolerance, and operational efficiency, reducing risk and enabling smoother production monitoring and data processing. Technologies demonstrated include AWS Lambda, IAM, S3, CloudWatch, and Terraform, with code quality and refactoring practices applied to improve maintainability.

During 2025-11, delivered and stabilized core platform environment automation for the Ministry of Justice Modernisation Platform Environments repo. Key features include MDSS cleanup workflow enhancements with a dead-letter queue, a dedicated SQS->Lambda trigger for cleanup orchestration, and streamlined trigger configuration to reduce misconfigurations. Additional improvements upgraded the clean_after_mdss_load Lambda environment with current account CATALOG_ID and new environment parameters, and refactored IAM role management to reuse existing roles and remove outdated ones. Deployment pipelines gained flexibility through extended environment tagging to cover preproduction and test environments. These efforts decrease operational risk, improve maintainability, and enable smoother deployments across environments.
