GitHub Actions
GitHub Actions automates your software workflow directly in GitHub. We write workflow files that build, test, lint, scan, and deploy your application on every pull request and merge — with the correct job dependencies, caching, secret handling, and environment promotion logic that a production pipeline requires.
Capabilities
What we build with GitHub Actions
Build · Test · Lint
CI Pipelines
Workflows that run on every pull request: dependency installation with caching, TypeScript or build compilation, unit tests, integration tests, ESLint, and any additional quality gates the team needs before merge.
Image pipeline
Docker Build and Push
Workflows that build Docker images with BuildKit, push to Amazon ECR using OIDC (no stored credentials), and tag with the commit SHA for traceability between deployed images and source commits.
EKS rollout
Kubernetes Deployment
Deployment workflows that update a Helm values file or Kubernetes manifest with the new image tag and apply it to EKS, with rollout status monitoring and rollback on failed health checks.
DRY pipelines
Reusable Workflows
Reusable workflow definitions called by multiple repositories so that the organization's CI standards are maintained in one place rather than duplicated across every repo.
Dev → staging → prod
Environment Promotion
Environment-based deployment workflows with required reviewers for production and automatic deployment to staging on merge, using GitHub Environments for approval gates and deployment history.
Trivy · Semgrep · Dependabot
Security and Compliance Checks
Workflow jobs for container image scanning with Trivy, static code analysis with Semgrep, and dependency vulnerability alerting with Dependabot — integrated as required checks before merge.
Our approach
OIDC for all AWS authentication
Storing AWS access keys as GitHub Actions secrets is avoidable with OIDC. We configure the GitHub Actions OIDC provider in AWS IAM and IAM roles that the workflow jobs assume. No long-lived credentials exist in GitHub.
Cache dependencies aggressively
GitHub Actions charges by the minute. Downloading npm or pip packages on every run adds up fast and slows feedback. We configure actions/cache for all package managers so that dependency installation is a cache hit on most runs.
Reusable workflows over copy-paste
A CI pipeline that is duplicated across ten repositories is ten pipelines to maintain. We define organization-level reusable workflows and composite actions so that improvements apply everywhere and drift between teams is visible.
Environments for promotion control
GitHub Environments let you require manual approval before deploying to production, record a deployment history per environment, and gate deployments on branch protection rules. We configure environment-based workflows so that promotion to production is controlled and auditable.
All engineering work is done by US-based engineers. We do not offshore any development or architecture work.
