Principal Software Engineer

At Oracle Data Cloud's Moat, I worked on a comprehensive technological re-architecture project aimed at improving agility and scalability in the integration of Moat's product with Twitter and Google.
The project involved moving from server-to-server (S2S) integration to a generic API approach and selecting the most suitable technology stack for various integrations.
We utilized a range of cutting-edge technologies, including Apache Airflow, EMR, Postgres, PySpark, S3, Python, and BigTable to achieve our goals.
The main objective was to create a more efficient and effective Adtech platform that would gather data from top Ad platforms and provide relevant metrics to publishers, enabling them to gauge the success of their advertising campaigns.
