PROFILE

Jonathan Chu

Worked on the Yelp/paasta repository to modernize deployment infrastructure by removing legacy Gunicorn exporter sidecars, cleaning up configuration files, and consolidating metrics provider labeling for improved observability. Introduced a worker_load autoscaling feature, integrating it with Prometheus and standardizing provider naming to enable proactive scaling and reduce deployment complexity. Enhanced Kubernetes test reliability by adding missing mocks and refining test setups. Addressed a critical bug to ensure Prometheus reliably scrapes Gunicorn metrics when the worker-load autoscaler is active, closing observability gaps. Leveraged Python, Kubernetes, and Prometheus throughout, focusing on backend development, configuration management, and robust monitoring solutions.
