• Provisioned and managed AWS EC2 instances for application hosting, handling instance setup, security group configuration, SSH key management, and environment variable provisioning for multiple deployed services.
• Configured Nginx as a reverse proxy across production environments, writing server blocks to route traffic to Node.js backends and Next.js frontends, managing HTTP-to-HTTPS redirects and upstream definitions.
• Containerised application services using Docker, writing Dockerfiles with multi-stage builds to minimise image size, and managing container lifecycles across development and production environments.
• Built and maintained CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, automating build, lint, and deployment workflows — reducing manual deployment steps and enabling consistent, repeatable releases on every merge to main.
• Administered Linux servers for day-to-day operational tasks: monitoring system resources (top, htop), managing services (systemctl), diagnosing connectivity issues (ss, curl), and maintaining log rotation and disk health.
• Delivered full-stack application features using React.js and Node.js/Express, owning complete feature cycles from API design and database integration through to frontend implementation.
• Integrated MySQL and MongoDB database layers into backend services, writing schema definitions, migrations, and query optimisations that supported core product workflows.
• Collaborated across teams on code reviews and debugging sessions, maintaining shared coding standards and contributing to a cleaner, more maintainable codebase.
