Key Strengths

  • Improved push job/application performance from ~50% to ~99% via 'push light' update flow and downstream collaboration
  • Rapidly redesigned and implemented audience count architecture (delivered in ~3 days) to handle complex rules and reduce timeouts
  • Deep production troubleshooting (Hikari connection pool/DB connection set issues) to resolve timeout errors
  • Strong code quality leadership: enforces coding standards, SOLID principles, PR review/merge discipline, and pairs on reviews
  • Player-coach who remains highly hands-on (reported 90% coding / 10% management) while leading delivery and technical depth each sprint
  • Reliability ownership: handled data corruption incident using DB snapshot replication and delivered permanent fix by correcting stored procedure logic
  • Onboarding and performance coaching through KT, documentation, 1:1s, and pair programming to increase team contribution
  • Built and shipped an AI-driven beauty routine/personalization service with ~10% sales lift in first two weeks
  • Designed and implemented backend APIs integrating ML recommendations and order tracking via Kafka
  • Pragmatic architecture tradeoffs (switched from data lake to MySQL to reduce latency for simpler datasets)
  • Scaled order processing by introducing Kafka to eliminate order delivery losses to WMS
  • Production reliability ownership: analyzed 6 months of missed tracking data, categorized errors, automated email reporting, and drove errors to zero
