Process design and implementation in the area of product development / deployments and infrastructure with a focus on cloud (cloud native design)

01/2020 ? 06/2022 (Greenfield phase)

• Infra-team lead and coordination (until 07/2020).
• CI/CD pipelines for cloud tools and applications.

• Establish infrastructure through ?Infra as Code? (AWS and K8S components).
• Integration of OAUTH solutions such as Keycloak and implementation of automatic integration with other tools.
• Design observability in the process and technical implementation (logging, monitoring and audit).
• Development of Helm Chart for the individual products according to the ?Configuration as Code? principle.
• Propagating the DevOps mentality for better collaboration within the product team or across teams such as the security or service team.

07/2022 ? 06/2023 (Migration Phase)

• Cloud migration planning and implementation together with a task force from the Infra team (from Cloud provider Syncier to Cloud provider Allianz Technology).
• Managing RFCs.
• Documentation of Migration from an architectural point of view.
• Migration of all workloads from KOPS to EKS.
• Migration of the IAM to our own solutions (AzureAD and Keycloak on Prem).
• Migration to your own solutions (OPA Gatekeeper, Jenkins, Keycloak, from technical users to Pod identities in connection with AWS roles).
• Adaptation to Allianz Tech cloud standards.
• Customization of terraform modules.
• Lifecycle Infra tools from the open-source area (decommissioning and adoption).
• Continuous cost optimization.
• Security and process design in coop with ISO ? static and active: Statical code analysis, linting, vulnerability scanss at build and runtime; E2E encryption with a service mesh overlay (Linkerd and later Istio); Network policies and cluster policies (Open Policy Agent and Rego). Identifying the blast radius, defining containments and actions. (No lateral movement under Zero Trust).

07/2022 ? 03/2024 (Consolidation phase)

• Aggressive cost optimization in the new environment (along with refactoring, tool decommissioning and tool adoption).
• Refactoring of deployment processes while maintaining GitOps standard.
• Alert definitions for resource consumption.
• Streamlining build deployment processes in the new environment.
• Creating User Stories for further implementation
• Extensive documentation for requirements, process and decisions for the Infra side of the project.
• PoC proposals for adopting new technologies.
• Team enabling through knowledge transfers.

• Design and development of a cloud native application for simplified cluster management via the GitOps process (GitHub).
• Integration of OAUTH solutions such as Keycloak and implementation of automatic integration with other tools.
• CI/CD pipelines for cloud tools and applications.
• Gitflow and automatic versioning for images and artifacts.
• Development of Docker images for use as build agents (Jenkins Agents).
• Further development of Helm Jenkins for customers under the ?Configuration as Code? principle.

Continuous delivery (pipelines), monitoring, alerting, logging and infrastructure for participating projects

• Transfer of knowledge and solutions between the project teams in the areas mentioned.
• Pairing with different teams (different applications) to create automated context-based solutions in the continuous integration area (Jenkins pipelines).
• Moderating the DevOps meetings and presenting the solutions found.
• Promote pilot technologies in the areas of security scanning, monitoring and testing.
• Support and induction assistance for new project teams in the ATC technology landscape.
• Building innovative monitoring and alerting solutions with Prometheus and Grafana.

Continuous Delivery (Pipelines), Monitoring, Alerting, Logging and development of a cloud native application

• Further development of the middleware (Express) and its migration in the cloud structure of the Agile Delivery Platform (Cloud Foundry).
• Development of a deployment strategy to strengthen cooperation between the department and the development team using the GitHub flow principle. This also includes development of proxy solutions so that differently installed components can be linked together in feature branches.
• Migration of the existing Jenkins jobs to the new infrastructure and the development of further integrations with tools such as Sonarqube and Artifactory for a CI flow.
• Development of a functional library with reusable functions to support additional Jenkins jobs.
• Automation of a four-eye principle in the migration and continuous delivery context.
