Case Studies
Program Case Studies
Hands-on work from the Apple Developer Institute DevOps program (in collaboration with SQE), covering CI/CD, IaC, CaC, monitoring, and cloud infrastructure on AWS, built and operated with a small cohort team.
Procal
A 4-service cost-estimate & approval platform, moved from ClickOps and manual SSH deploys to Terraform + Atlantis GitOps, with Jenkins-driven Ansible/Packer pipelines and per-service Grafana monitoring.

aform
An Airtable Forms clone built around a queue-decoupled write path (RabbitMQ + worker), with a hardened deployment flow: systemd, Nginx, UFW, S3-backed backups, and a real k6 load test.

My Projects
Explore some of the projects I've worked on. These showcase my skills and expertise in various domains of software development.
my-agents
A self-hosted platform for running always-on AI agents, each with its own persona, role, and bring-your-own-model (Anthropic Claude, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint via LiteLLM). Agents can be triggered through a chat console, REST API, cron schedules, or webhooks, with every trigger producing a task tracked on a unified Task Board. Built with a Next.js/TypeScript frontend and a Go backend (chi router, layered API/service/store design) on PostgreSQL, with API keys encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM).

ContainerGUI
A minimal native macOS app (SwiftUI) that gives Apple's `container` CLI a graphical interface, without reimplementing any of its underlying logic. It shells out to the container binary and parses its JSON output directly, showing running containers (name, image, state, ports) with per-container Start/Stop controls, plus a tab listing available images by name, tag, and digest. Deliberately scoped to read/list/start/stop only, no log viewing or interactive exec.

Procal Ops Botbot
@procal_ops_bot checkout-service alert just escalated from warning to critical, what's going on?
🔍 p99 latency crossed the critical threshold: 340ms → 2.1s over the last 5 min. Checked Loki + Tempo: traced it to a slow DB query introduced by commit a3f21c9, which dropped an index.
Recommended fix: revert a3f21c9, or re-add the index on orders.customer_id. Want me to open a PR for either?
open a PR to re-add the index
✅ Opened PR #491: re-add index on orders.customer_id
Procal Ops Bot
A Claude-powered Telegram bot for incident triage, PR review, and infra ops. It blends local Bitbucket tools with five MCP servers (Grafana, AWS, SonarQube, Jenkins, Git) behind one unified tool registry, so Claude can check incidents, review or fix pull requests, and report back in chat, with AWS access enforced read-only and a small FastAPI admin panel to toggle tool groups per Telegram chat.

Infra Metrics Botonline
what's the p95 latency for checkout-service in the last hour?
p95 latency for checkout-service (1h): 142ms — up from 118ms 24h ago. No active alerts.
Infrastructure Metrics Bot
A chatbot for natural-language querying of Prometheus metrics. Users ask a question in plain language, Claude (via AWS Bedrock) translates it into PromQL, runs it against Prometheus, and replies in plain language, with a refinement loop that retries the query if the first attempt returns no data. Ships as two implementations, WhatsApp (dynamic ~600-metric discovery) and Telegram (curated metric list with 4-turn conversation memory), plus Grafana alert routing straight into Telegram with silence URLs.

RandL
RandL is a smart drum practice partner combining an IoT-enabled practice pad and an iOS companion app. It helps drum learners practice rudiments effectively by providing feedback, tracking progress, and enhancing learning experiences. As Co-Founder, I worked on ideation, design, and iOS development using SwiftUI, SwiftData, and Core Bluetooth. RandL is currently live on the App Store and in active go-to-market execution.
