- Built Backstage golden paths and reusable Terraform modules used by 250+ engineers, cutting new-service provisioning from 12 days to under 1.
- Shipped an AI pull-request reviewer (Claude Code, GitHub Actions) that checks diffs against Jira acceptance criteria, flags exposed credentials, and returns Unknown rather than guessing; 70+ repos, up from 30.
- Wired read-only and namespace-scoped mutating MCP servers so agents can query cluster state and execute changes, with RBAC, plan review, and PR approval gates.
- Moved 50+ microservices onto ArgoCD and Helm as the org's GitOps standard, replacing scheduled and ad-hoc releases with peer-reviewed deploys.
- Cut Kubernetes compute costs 25 to 35% by replacing Cluster Autoscaler with Karpenter and moving eligible non-production workloads to Spot, keeping On-Demand for critical services.
- Rebuilt the EKS dev cluster as 50+ Terraform-managed resources on private IPv6 subnets, moving every change to OIDC-authenticated plan-on-PR with zero disruption.
- Set up self-hosted EFK logging with parallel S3 archival, keeping log durability independent of search availability when Elasticsearch stopped accepting writes.
