Developed a fully-fledged authentication service which used Simple JWT as a JSON Web Token authentication
backend. Designed and implemented the required User hierarchy as per the project requirements.
Upgraded Python web scrapers from using Selenium to Scrapy+Playwright, achieving over 100 percent performance
improvement. This change not only improved performance of the scraper but also reduced the load on
the proxy server for heavy Javascript rendered websites, enhancing overall efficiency.

issues when the websites failed to provide expected data. This ensured scraping stability and resilience to varying
data sources.

Developed scripts for fetching and restructuring data from open source APIs for use in ML models
Implemented multithreading and multiprocessing in Python applications to boost application performance. This
led to significant improvements in runtime efficiency, resulting in a more responsive and performant applications.
