Overview
A popular modern email client processing millions of transactions per minute required infrastructure overhauls to support new serverless capabilities, heavy database migrations, and modern microservices routing.
Key Responsibilities & Impact
- Created and holistically managed a large-scale EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) cluster in AWS enforcing smooth, containerized stateless deployments.
- Wrote custom Helm Charts and automated Jenkins CI/CD pipelines to ensure swift and bug-free release rollouts.
- Pioneered complex, live data migration tasks securely transferring massive databases utilizing AWS Database Migration Service (DMS).
- Architected and deployed highly responsive serverless event-driven functionalities using AWS Lambda functions, SQS event queues, and RDS MySQL boundaries to handle asynchronous payloads such as incoming email webhooks.
Result
Achieved significant cloud cost reductions through the adoption of micro-billing serverless patterns, ensured seamless real-time syncing for thousands of active users, and eradicated deployment friction.
