Crafted a robust, scalable, and resilient event-driven service to subscribe to domain events and dispatch relevant events to third-party events in Golang using PostgreSQL and Kafka. Using accurate state transition management, decoupling concerns, subtle retry mechanisms, and effective use of adaptor pattern, integrated various vendors like Moengage, Google Analytics, FB, etc. and were able to reconcile our journey-defining user actions, giving the product folks an accurate picture of business being brought in and out.

Rebuilt the application orchestration microservice to coordinate and manage communication and requests between application services in Golang from the ground up. Implemented concurrency to improve the latency of workflows, distributed tracing, and a reliable runtime called Temporal for quicker debugging of issues and transparency within the microservice processes. Introduced comprehensive unit testing-driven development within the service to reduce friction between dev and QA. With an improved engine, the customer adoption rate improved from 23% to 63%, making the service far more scalable while lowering infrastructural costs by 82%. Tech support got a major uplift as they now become independent for debugging issues.

Designed and implemented cart management service in Golang for capturing user actions on the shopping cart, ensuring encomposition across both business facets (rent and purchase). Redesigned state management, integrating Apache Kafka to publish cart-related actions that were used to analyse user journeys and shopping patterns, which were later used to improve the user experience. The user journey addons, which were enabled as a result of the redesign, improved the user acquisition funnel from consideration to the conversion stage by 37%.

Constructed a dynamic listing platform adept at consolidating varied microservice data elements, which served as a rendering engine for products and all-related data. Using data modelling and Mongo DB Atlas search effectively to enable dynamic filter functionality for product facets, fuzzy text searches, and important features like similar product recommendations. To ensure smooth data synchronisation with business-dependent services, used Kafka to ensure 100% automatic data refresh within the system on business-driven updates.

Led a team of software engineers, spearheading initiatives to enhance development processes. Implemented crucial changes within the development workflow, including the creation of comprehensive technical specifications, unit testing and design documents to build a knowledge base. Took charge of establishing rigorous quality standards by introducing and overseeing the implementation of unit tests.

February ’22 – December '22

Designed and developed a custom (vegeta-based) robust load-testing framework to replicate multiple types of tenant-based production scenarios, which helped in the capacity estimation (throughput and threshold) of the then-current system.

Designed microservice model for a monolithic service, which enabled independent deployments for individual components of the service. Brought in containerization for smoother and faster scaling. Built CI/CD for the service, increasing developer productivity by increasing frequency and reducing deployment time. This effort enabled the re-scale the service to serve from 25M to 108M requests per day.

Integrated service mesh Istio within the service, to leverage traffic management capability and circuit breaking mechanism (outlier detection). Created fault injection pipelines to test the production cluster to increase confidence within the system. Also leveraged tenant-based rate limiting from the integrated service mesh.

Built RuleEngine for the company’s core product StrategyDotZero, to serve business rule configurations for the product based on the different clients in .NET Core.

Part of the team migrating the product into a microservice(.NET Core) from its current monolithic architecture (.NET MVC).

Worked with the team to refactor 3 core modules and rebuilt the codebase according to defined company guidelines, aimed towards easier code maintenance.

Deployed the decoupled modules as a microservice in an Azure Kubernetes Cluster, migrating it from its existing monolithic model.

Implemented unit testing in the CI pipeline for the decoupled modules.
