Personal Hackdays building a cell phone

For my second hackday project of 2020 I thought maybe I could create a motorized chicken coop door that was controlled by Alexa.  It should also be solar powered because there is no power down at the coop.   Presumably it could keep a Raspbery pi zero w running 24x7 and it in turn could monitor an SQS queue at AWS.. waiting for incoming commands from an Alexa skill.
