Active Projects
A complete architectural and UX overhaul for a major online retailer. The project involves migrating a monolithic backend to a microservices architecture, building a new headless frontend using Next.js and React for improved performance, and integrating a new payment gateway. The goal is to reduce page load times by 50% and increase conversion rates by 20%.
Designing a scalable, real-time data ingestion and processing pipeline for a new line of smart home IoT devices. The architecture uses AWS Kinesis for data streaming, Lambda for serverless processing, and a time-series database for efficient storage and querying. The project is currently on hold pending hardware finalization.
