• Backend: Engineered and optimized backend algorithms in Scala for critical API paths (attendee-listing and administration for an event-management solution), reducing average load times from 1400 ms to 24 ms (57x throughput boost from ~714 attendee-requests/sec to ~41,667 attendee-requests/sec, verified via JMH benchmarks).
• Frontend: Spearheaded the redesign of the EmberJS component architecture to accelerate feature delivery, ensuring lean DOM structures with no redundant loads and implementing cleaner, mutable state updates. This streamlined approach reduced branch merge conflicts and sped up E2E testing.
• Database: Enhanced database query performance by fine-tuning complex SQL queries, reducing execution times from 300 ms to 20 ms (confirmed via pgbench benchmarks) and optimizing Redis caching to lower memory consumption.
• I took ownership of critical Scala backend services, applying advanced optimization, and concurrency models to achieve significant throughput gains. My responsibilities included holistic optimization, from the application layer down to fine-tuning PostgreSQL queries and refining our Redis caching strategy for maximum efficiency.
