Raw Blame History

Alexa Amundson

Site Reliability Engineer

amundsonalexa@gmail.com | github.com/blackboxprogramming

Summary

SRE managing a 7-node distributed fleet with 256 systemd services, 52 automated tasks, and self-healing autonomy. Maintains 48+ production domains, 99 Cloudflare deployments, and a daily KPI system tracking 60+ reliability metrics across 9 data sources.

Experience

BlackRoad OS | Founder & SRE Lead | 2024–Present

Reliability & Uptime

Operate 5 Raspberry Pi edge nodes + 2 cloud VMs with WireGuard mesh connectivity
Implement self-healing cron automation: heartbeat every 1 minute, heal cycle every 5 minutes
Monitor and resolve 12 failed systemd units across fleet with automated restart policies
Manage 48 Nginx reverse proxy sites routing traffic to backend services

Incident Response

Identified and resolved thermal throttling (73.8°C → 57.9°C) caused by runaway Ollama loops
Fixed undervoltage issues across Pi fleet via config.txt tuning (+95mV recovery)
Discovered and removed obfuscated cron dropper (security incident on Cecilia)
Resolved swap exhaustion (100% on Cecilia) by identifying memory-hungry services
Migrated leaked credentials from plaintext crontabs to secured env files (chmod 600)

Monitoring & Observability

Built 9-collector KPI system: GitHub, Gitea, fleet, services, autonomy, LOC, local, Cloudflare, deep GitHub
Track 60+ metrics daily: commits, fleet health, temperatures, swap, processes, connections
Distributed tracing database with nanosecond-precision spans
Per-node SSH health probes with Python-based remote execution
Power monitoring deployed to all nodes (cron every 5 minutes, persistent logs)

Infrastructure Management

14 Docker containers via Docker Swarm with leader election
11 PostgreSQL databases with automated backup
9 Tailscale mesh peers for secure cross-network access
4 Cloudflare tunnels routing 48+ domains to fleet services

Capacity Planning

Fleet: 20 GB RAM, 707 GB storage, 52 TOPS AI compute
Identified and disabled 16 skeleton microservices freeing 800 MB RAM
Cleaned 19 GB of stale GitHub Actions runner directories
Power optimization: conservative CPU governors, WiFi power management, GPU memory reduction

Technical Skills

SRE: systemd, cron, Nginx, Docker Swarm, WireGuard, Tailscale, Cloudflare Tunnels Monitoring: Custom KPI collection, distributed tracing, thermal/voltage monitoring, SSH probes Incident Response: Root cause analysis, credential rotation, service isolation, capacity recovery Languages: Bash (212 CLI tools), Python, JavaScript Cloud: Cloudflare (99 Pages, 22 D1, 46 KV, 11 R2), DigitalOcean
