Project history
Architected a FastAPI-based calculation engine using graph modeling to calculate and visualize environmental impact for enterprise clients. Managed mission-critical production services on GCP using Kubernetes, built CI/CD pipelines with Terraform, engineered an ETL pipeline processing over 16M+ unstructured LCA records, and developed an emissions analytics dashboard improving reporting efficiency by 25%.
Led an observability initiative reducing MTTR by 50%. Defined real-time Kafka pipelines for blockchain transaction processing, integrated Web3.js for on-chain event synchronization, built a Next.js analytics dashboard contributing to a 15% increase in daily trades, and designed the backend architecture for a DeFi platform using NestJS, PostgreSQL, and RabbitMQ supporting over 10,000 daily transactions.
Led end-to-end development of a freemium platform using Node.js and React. Launched a permission-based architecture contributing to a 20% increase in paid subscriptions. Achieved a feature flag platform reducing deployment risk by 30%. Migrated the frontend from React Redux to TanStack Query, reducing boilerplate code by 40%.
