Continuously Delivering the News
summary
Built a shared Kubernetes runtime that standardizes languages to Go and TypeScript, bakes in observability, Vault secrets, and artifact management, and automates deployments with Argo CD so feature teams get one-click application creation and ephemeral PR environments. A monorepo (New York Times com) and Athletics domain migrate into the platform with zero downtime, running on EKS, and upgrades run for over a year and a half with no production interruptions.
