Will A. Soto — AWS Cloud Engineer

AWS Cloud Engineer and AWS Community Builder focused on secure AWS infrastructure, Terraform-driven automation, CI/CD delivery, cloud security, and operational reliability.

I build production-style AWS environments using VPC networking, IAM governance, infrastructure as code, event-driven services, observability, and controlled release workflows. My work is centered on reliable infrastructure, repeatable deployments, audit-ready security controls, and practical automation that supports real operational outcomes.


Core Focus

  • AWS Infrastructure: VPC design, EC2, ECS, load balancing, Auto Scaling, Route 53, and multi-tier architecture
  • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform and CloudFormation for repeatable, governed deployments
  • CI/CD Automation: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and structured beta-to-production release workflows
  • Security & Governance: IAM, KMS, AWS Config, GuardDuty, Inspector, WAF, and least-privilege access design
  • Observability: CloudWatch, CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and Splunk
  • Applied AI on AWS: Bedrock, Rekognition, Transcribe, Translate, and Polly integrated into event-driven workflows

Featured Projects

AI Resume Platform — Serverless AWS Resume Site

Built and deployed a live resume platform at willsoto.tech using Amazon Bedrock, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, CloudFront, ACM, and CloudFormation.

Automated review-first CI/CD promotion from beta to production using GitHub Actions, with isolated environments for controlled releases.

Prompt Deployment Pipeline — Event-Driven AI Content Delivery

Built an event-driven prompt execution pipeline that triggers Lambda from S3 object events and invokes Amazon Bedrock on demand.

Provisioned environment-scoped infrastructure with Terraform, including Lambda functions, IAM roles, S3 event notifications, CloudWatch logging, and GitHub Actions deployment workflows.

Automated EC2 Governance — Serverless Shutdown & Audit Pipeline

Built a tag-governed Lambda workflow that stops approved non-production EC2 instances through EventBridge.

Implemented DynamoDB audit logging for shutdown events, capturing instance ID, tags, timestamp, and request metadata.

Exposed controlled on-demand shutdown through API Gateway to support cleanup without direct console access.
