# Site Reliability & Monitoring

> Selected work demonstrating this service.

- [Administered 40 websites on Ubuntu Linux hosting servers with Apache and Nginx, ensuring high availability and performance.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/administered-40-websites-on-ubuntu-linux-hosting-servers-53/)
- [Architected, developed, implemented, supported infrastructure, data processing, and the map application for 2 years non‑stop without any weekends, holidays, or vacations, 10–14 hours a day.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/architected-developed-implemented-supported-infrastructure-data-processing-and-55/)
- [Built email as a platform capability — three providers with failover, delivery webhooks, send and delivery logging, templating and campaigns — behind a startup check that will not boot without one.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/built-email-as-a-platform-capability-with-failover-62/)
- [Planned and implemented new infrastructure functionality for internal and external systems, building solutions durable enough to still run years later with minimal change.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/planned-and-implemented-new-infrastructure-functionality-for-internal-85/)
- [Moved slow work off the request path onto a River job queue — 15 worker modules, 8 scheduled tasks and 20 pg_cron jobs — so a request returns while the work behind it carries on.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/moved-slow-work-onto-a-river-job-queue-97/)
- [Built first‑party error monitoring and OpenTelemetry tracing rather than buying them — payload sanitising, spike and regression detection, symbolication and a synthetic heartbeat — behind 11 operator views.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/built-first-party-error-monitoring-and-tracing-98/)
- [Built fail‑closed abuse controls — 22 Redis‑backed rate limiters, Cloudflare Turnstile, request idempotency and an origin lock — so the platform sheds bots and floods instead of trusting its callers.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/built-fail-closed-abuse-controls-and-rate-limiting-100/)
- [Stopped an application filling memory at 41 MB a second — a recorded 111 GB of compressed pages on a 36 GB machine — by bounding every event stream, subscribing by event type and putting a rate budget on logging, taking 610,996 log lines down to 1,411.](https://software.engineer.company/portfolio/stopped-an-application-filling-memory-at-41mb-a-second-155/)
