    Designing and deploying Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers enabling AI assistants (Kiro IDE, Kiro CLI, GitLab Duo, Copilot, Amazon Q) to manage CI/CD troubleshooting, code review security scanning MR summaries and development automation, code generation and integration testing. Built async Python MCP server with 15+ tools covering pipeline triggering, job monitoring, variable management, and artifact retrieval — adopted by engineering teams. Architected multi-environment AWS platform using Terraform with reusable private-registry modules, eliminating configuration drift and cutting new-environment provisioning from days to under few hours. Designed and operated Kubernetes (EKS) platforms supporting 20+ containerized microservices with auto-scaling, pod disruption budgets, and network policies for enterprise security compliance. Built GitLab CI/CD pipelines with integrated Terraform, tfsec, Trivy, and pre-commit scanning, enforcing security and compliance gates across all infrastructure changes. Implemented centralized observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger, OpenTelemetry) reducing mean time to detect (MTTD) for production incidents. Led a knowledge-transfer initiative with a junior engineering team, guiding them through the process of importing existing AWS resources into Terraform, authoring reusable infrastructure modules, and delivering hands-on training to accelerate team adoption of IaC standards.
