Portfolio
SwapZilla
● Developing a trading platform in Python, aiohttp (used Django in one microservice), PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ and AWS (S3, Cognito, Lambdas) for people trading cryptocurrencies that gives access to many exchanges and provides useful tools. ● Optimized the operation of the service for replenishing/withdrawing balances on the platform, which listened to blocks of transactions within blockchain networks. ● Developed support for Ethereum. ● I was developing a service that pulled data from exchanges via REST API and websockets.
Skipp
Skipp is an HR platform dedicated to the construction of remote teams. ● I worked on platform backend, spearheaded the shift to a microservice architecture, significantly improving the efficiency and scalability of the system. ● Designed and implemented a notification service. ● Worked on connecting many third-party APIs. ● I was engaged in transitioning from Django to FastAPI through comprehensive refactoring efforts.
Evvve
Evvve is a platform designed for hosting professional events incorporating the facets of social networking and platform-based streaming. ● I spearheaded the ground up backend development for the platform, contributed to product decision discussions, and provided guidance to designers concerning privacy matters, including GDPR. ● Despite initially having limited experience with AWS, I quickly got to grips with it and implemented a chat feature consisting of two microservices (API and WebSocket), utilizing AWS Lambda and AWS DynamoDB. ● During this experience, I extensively worked with the following tech stack: Python, FastAPI, Sanic, Tortoise-ORM, Redis, Celery, PostgreSQL, Socket.IO, and AWS (specifically DynamoDB, SQS, Lambda, IVS, MediaLive, S3, and Serverless Framework for deployment).
