From the CDC's enterprise data front door to NASA disaster response, fifteen years of cloud engineering on contracts that can't fail.
Mechanicode led the establishment of the CDC OCIO Enterprise DevSecOps (EDSO) team, setting new standards for enterprise cloud conventions agency-wide.
The CDC is revolutionizing enterprise modernization through its Data Modernization Initiative, and Mechanicode has been pivotal in this transformation. Spearheading cloud operations for the OCIO Enterprise Data Exchange (DEX), the "front door," we provide a seamless, single entry point for the public health community to transmit data directly to the CDC, accessible to partners across state, tribal, local and territorial levels. Engineered on Azure for pandemic-scale demands and processing billions of messages daily, DEX has grown from a green-field project into critical infrastructure poised to onboard and centralize all external APIs for the agency, delivered with a rigorous quality framework spanning code review, unit, integration, system and user acceptance testing.
Mechanicode assumed comprehensive responsibility for cloud IT product assessment, design, development, re-architecture, enhancement, deployment, and operations and maintenance for the CDC IT Portfolio.
Mechanicode engaged with NASA to modernize how they react to California forest fire disasters, using direct satellite acquisition and cloud-scale processing to analyze weather data while reducing latency from acquisition to data availability for scenarios like disaster response.
Mechanicode embeds cloud subject matter expertise directly into start-up and consultancy teams, auditing existing CI/CD and cloud infrastructure, then planning and implementing modernized deployment and operational infrastructure post-audit. Engagements cover cloud-native architecture, container orchestration, distributed systems CI, and operational metrics and observability tooling.
