I'm Joe Leto
Cloud engineer focused on AWS automation.
This isn't just a portfolio — it's a live terminal powered by AWS.

Hands-on cloud engineer specializing in AWS automation and infrastructure as code.
This terminal connects to live AWS services: Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3 — all built with Terraform, deployed through GitHub Actions, and versioned from the ground up.
I learn best by building — and this is what I’ve built.
Cloud Resume Terminal
My Resume
GovCloud Onboarding Framework
A production-ready onboarding framework for AWS GovCloud environments.
- Dev, Shared, and Prod VPCs deployed via CloudFormation
- All traffic routed through a centralized Transit Gateway
- Includes visual diagram, full IaC stack, and deploy script
- GitHub Repository
- GovCloud Framework Readme (PDF)
Neurodivergent Classroom Scheduler
A custom scheduling system for Jacob Levy, a neurodivergent career coach.
- Conflict detection with regenerable room matrix
- Nightly auto-archiving keeps logs tidy
- Built entirely with Google Apps Script and Sheets
- Classroom Scheduler Readme (PDF)
The Cloud Terminal
A terminal interface built directly into my site — fully powered by AWS. Every command triggers real infrastructure. This is my resume, my lab, and my proof of work.
- Commands like 'resume', 'view counter', and 'architecture' run live backend logic
- Lambda functions handle execution, API Gateway routes requests, DynamoDB stores data
- Infrastructure provisioned with Terraform and deployed through GitHub Actions
- Built to demonstrate how I design, deploy, and maintain real cloud systems
Cloud Resume Challenge
My first cloud project. What started as a static resume became a functioning serverless stack that showed me how to think in infrastructure.
- Hosted on S3, delivered through CloudFront, routed via Route 53
- Resume views tracked using Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB
- CI/CD set up through GitHub Actions for zero-touch deployment
Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
I codified my full AWS stack using Terraform — no manual clicking, just clean, versioned infrastructure that can be deployed and destroyed in minutes.
- Modular Terraform configs for all services: Lambda, IAM, S3, DNS, APIs
- Enabled rollback, change previews, and infrastructure drift detection
- Integrated into CI/CD pipeline for automated deployments
