- Designed workflow automation for reducing the dependence on manual efforts
- File sharing was facilitated through FSx (as soon as source files were available, they were immediately available on all servers on cloud)
- Implemented Infrastructure as a code (IAC) to remove the need for manual infrastructure design by leveraging YAML and JSON scripts
- Designed a 3-tier architecture to segregate Web (Internet), Application, and Database layers
