Worked across ministryofjustice/hmpps-github-actions, hmpps-template-kotlin, hmpps-template-typescript, and cloud-platform-environments repositories to deliver safer CI/CD workflows and optimize cloud resource usage. Enhanced migration scripts with Bash and YAML to add user-facing warnings and optional security configuration, reducing misconfiguration risk. Improved pipeline reliability by fixing push parameter handling in GitHub Actions for Kotlin and TypeScript templates, ensuring consistent deployment behavior. In cloud-platform-environments, tuned Kubernetes resource limits for PPUD Automation deployments, aligning CPU and memory with observed usage and implementing controlled rollbacks to maintain stability. Demonstrated a capacity-aware, scripting-driven approach to DevOps, emphasizing maintainability and operational efficiency throughout.
February 2026 performance summary for ministryofjustice/cloud-platform-environments. Delivered targeted resource optimization for PPUD Automation deployments by aligning CPU/memory limits with observed pod reductions in pre-production and production environments. Implemented precise resource adjustments (reducing pod counts from 8 to 2) to minimize over-provisioning and improve efficiency, with proactive monitoring to ensure stability. Addressed production deployment stability by applying limit changes with a controlled revert to a previously stable configuration when needed, preserving service reliability. The work demonstrates capacity-aware deployment practices, reduces waste, and lays groundwork for ongoing optimization in resource governance across automation workloads.

November 2025: Cross-repo pipeline reliability improvements focused on the push parameter behavior in template pipelines for Kotlin and TypeScript templates. Implemented fixes to ensure the optional push flag is interpreted correctly depending on trigger context, aligning behavior across repos and reducing risk of unintended image pushes.

September 2025: Focused on safety and flexibility in hmpps-github-actions. Implemented user-facing warnings around yq's merge operator behavior in CircleCI YAML and added an optional prompt for configuring SECURITY_ALERTS_SLACK_CHANNEL_ID during migrations. These changes reduce misconfig risk, streamline migration workflows, and demonstrate scripting, CI/CD tooling, and security workflow proficiency.
