  • Set up governance tools (AWS Budgets, Consolidated Billing) to monitor and manage spending across accounts.
  • Completed an average of six projects a month with AWS CloudFormation.
  • Python, SonarQube, and other tools were used to help the Quality Assurance Team run tests, analyze the underlying causes of bugs or high latency, track defects, resolve database bottlenecks through performance tuning, generate and store test reports, and connect them with the release requirements for the artifacts built for medical device systems.
  • Managed over 20 AWS accounts, including the setup and configuration of IAM users and accounts, Simple Storage Service (S3), AWS EC2 instances, AWS RDS databases, VPCs, Elastic Load Balancers (ELBs), auto-scaling groups, CloudFront distributions, ElasticSearch, Route 53 hosted zones, and health checks (CloudWatch); built a 3-tier web application; and wrote AWS Lambda functions, as well as Terraform scripts.
