• ● Using Python, Django, Postgresql, Redis, Celery & AWS, I developed a content management system that functioned like a control panel for listing cities, neighbourhoods, stores, and products for adding or removing content from consumer apps.
• ● Created the early versions of consumer APIs which mainly include:
• ➼ Search APIs using Python, Django & Elasticsearch that helped customers find stores and products
• available in their neighbourhood stores.
• ➼ Login/Signup API using OTP-based authentication and role-based access controls.
• ➼ APIs to navigate through the different stores, browse products, add to cart & apply discount coupons.
• ● Built a near-real-time indexing pipeline to deliver inventory stock and price updates to Elasticsearch.
• ● Led a team of five members in successfully transitioning the monolithic content management system into a service-oriented architecture. This strategic move involved designing and implementing REST APIs that facilitated seamless communication with other teams responsible for warehouse inventory management.
• ● In addition to my role in feature development, I made valuable contributions as an infrastructure engineer by designing and implementing scalable, fault-tolerant, and highly available infrastructure and systems. I also focused on enhancing observability and monitoring capabilities to ensure optimal performance and efficient handling of requests from a user base exceeding 10 million.
