Selected Repos & Impact:
- Chiron-Relay (github.com/redjordan2539/Chiron-Relay): Async serverless FastAPI middleware on GCP Cloud Functions bridging Twilio webhooks and Gmail API. Features raw payload HMAC-SHA1 request validation, GCP Secret Manager integration, and Pytest coverage in CI.
- johto-infra (github.com/redjordan2539/johto-infra): Declarative Ansible IaC repository deploying rootless Podman Quadlets bound natively to systemd unit files. Features Traefik TLS cert resolution, Ansible Vault secret management, Gitea Actions CI/CD with ansible-lint, and automated Restic DR pipelines with explicit retention policies.
- Production Dispatch Engine: Built a Python automation tool to parse daily delivery workflows and send customer SMS alerts—cutting a multi-hour manual task down to under 30 minutes.
