REST/HTTP API and AWS Lambda implementation in Golang as per spec provided by the client

• Redesigned architecture of a monolithic Golang application into appropriate event driven microservices (where needed) for scalability and modularity, with the possibility of flexible asynchronous deployments in a Bazel monorepo (with full CI, automatic versioning, and conventional commits) with separate a deployment repo leveraging kustomize, helm, and ArgoCD for creating a pull based deployment strategy rather than a push based one
• Created custom client for integrating a proprietary API, in Golang
• Adopted Sonarqube for SAST
• Upgraded legacy python application to modern versions of libraries and python interpreter, improved CI pipelines
• Physical access and checks on airgapped lab servers

• Refocused on the backend development and devops

• Lead a small team of developers to fix issues, redesign, and architect new systems for the Skillpack product
• Used React, Python+Django+Celery, Golang, RabbitMQ to accomplish all functionality needed in the redesigns
• Continued focusing on the backend development, while also leading the team in terms of architectural design

• Mostly python, some Golang
• Re-architected some Golang services
• Implemented features for datawarehousing
• Wrote unit and integration tests
• Used tooling such as Kubernetes and Bazel
