    Achievers

    Senior Cloud Engineer (Jan 2022 -- Present)

    Toronto, ON

    Implemented comprehensive CI/CD solutions at all stages, including script development, pipeline creation, infrastructure as code, and ongoing maintenance. Used tools like Terraform, Helm, Drone (Harness), and Github Actions to automate infrastructure provisioning, ensuring efficient, consistent, and scalable cloud deployments.


    Led the integration of Tilt to empower developers with rapid microservice development capabilities. This removed any environment setup time, enabled instant iteration during development via live updating containers, a 90% reduction in CI/CD test times, and allowed for consistent environments across development and production.


    Managed Kubernetes clusters while applying best practices in deploying, scaling, and troubleshooting containers. Orchestrated containerized applications using Kubernetes, Helm, and ArgoCD.


    Integrated valuable tools such as gRPC protobufs, MinIO for GCS emulation, and WireMock for mock services.


    Maintained detailed documentation, optimized configurations, and adhered to best practices when implementing services or tools.


    Significantly contributed to a large-scale initiative to transition a legacy monolithic application to a microservices architecture through containerization and modern CI/CD practices, all while ensuring zero disruption to existing customers.


    Wrote Python and Bash for operational tasks, providing support to developers across Linux, MacOS, and Windows platforms. Also, contributed to internal tooling and libraries.


    Successfully executed a migration of container images from Google Container Registry (GCR) to Google Artifact Registry (GAR) and implemented GKE Image Streaming as an early adopter, addressing undocumented technical challenges.
