  • Designed and implemented an improved throttling process by setting up rules for groups that accounts can join to get higher throttling rates. The upgrade expedited new region builds by one week as other teams can independently join groups with higher limits without requiring manual update from our team.
  • Collaborated on enabling custom math expressions that combine more than one metrics for setting up auto scaling configurations.
