Key Strengths

  • Shipped end-to-end Stripe checkout + webhook payment confirmation with robust idempotency (event ID stored in Postgres)
  • Reduced checkout abandonment ~15% through UX iteration (error boundaries, clearer retry/fallback states)
  • Performance-first mindset: diagnosed bottlenecks and achieved major wins via Redis caching before React micro-optimizations
  • Designed and optimized Postgres full-text search (tsvector + GIN) to support sub-100ms queries; validated with EXPLAIN/ANALYZE
  • Pragmatic production quality: targeted tests for high-risk paths, structured logging for incident reconstruction
  • Made effective architecture tradeoffs under load (materialized view for standings vs real-time computation)
