Learning, managing and fixing/improving the tools/servers in use. Involved bits of Kubernetes, Terraform, Puppet and much more…

Tools used:

• Ansible
• Terraform

Setting up the business’ software using AWS services. They are a new company, aiming to provide sensors to companies along with a free app that anyone could download so that they can see whether a place that is subscribed to Flow is busy, in real time.

I was involved in:

• Creating the backend API that the app talks to when it wants to retrieve data
• Setting up authentication on this so that each user can only see and edit what they need to.
