Worked on the kyma-project/api-gateway repository, delivering features and fixes that improved upgrade stability, CI/CD reliability, and secure environment-aware access control. Applied Go and YAML scripting to implement Apply-based resource management for Kubernetes, preserving critical data during controller upgrades. Enhanced the CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions and Bash, adding automated migration and rate-limiting tests to reduce flakiness and accelerate releases. Modernized the release process by consolidating workflows, validating version formats, and improving Slack integration for better traceability. Addressed deployment reliability by correcting cloud provider settings and hardening environment detection, resulting in more robust, maintainable, and secure API Gateway operations.
