I joined a team of eight Software Engineers responsible for the giant food delivery company's backend search API. The reactive RESTful Web service and Elasticsearch are deployed on the Google Cloud Platform(GCP). Our global core team handles search functionality for 25+ countries worldwide and multiple languages. I worked closely with search ranking and search auto-complete teams.
I set up a shadow cluster, which enabled us to have a production-like playground to test high-impact changes before deploying them to production. I also setup various A/B experiments and worked on features like enhancing Chinese language support, increasing the scope of load testing, Menu search within restaurants, and improving restaurant ad revenue.

Software Development Engineer 2

Feb 2018 – Mar 2022 · 4 yrs 1 mo · Bangalore · Hybrid

We started building a new planning tool from scratch. This has presented many learning opportunities, moving from monolith architecture to micro-services-based architecture. I used Spring Boot, PostgreSQL for back-end, Docker, Kubernetes for deployment, and Jenkins, Docker for continuous integration. I worked on developing a data-driven, platform-agnostic way to import a network into the application.
I was also a CI expert on the team, helping to make decisions about the application development and deployment process and application quality.
I designed and developed in-house tools to predict the end-to-end test cases for any code change. This resulted in a 70% time reduction in test execution. The tool also identifies redundant test cases, increasing team efficiency and productivity.
