Experience
Battery Swapping Platform
I designed the architecture for the entire application, including the back end and front end. I also developed and led a team of two developers to develop the platform. I used the MQTT communication protocol and implemented the swapping process with more than ten communication steps between hardware, back end, and front end within 7–9 seconds.

I built an API for the front-end app that enabled user handshakes and ingested user-generated assets from the platform. Also, I implemented Azure Functions to process the input with computer vision scripts to generate the output. I shared it with the user over email with the polling API integrated with the front-end app.
Drug Data Scraping
https://vivpro.aiScraped data from HPRA (https://hpra.ie) and HMA (https://hma.eu) data sources, downloaded all the documents, extracted data from the documents, and made the data searchable using Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL and AWS Kendra to enable document search.

Cricuru
Devised a mobile and web-based learning platform for sports enthusiasts and developed it using the MERN stack. For the administration dashboard's front end, I used React, MobX, and Material UI. I contributed to the core back end of the application, which was built with API endpoints using Node.js with NestJS and MongoDB. I also integrated Stripe's payment gateway into the platform and helped build the video processing stack based on the AWS Media stack. After the video's upload, it was converted to the required formats, the captioning was added, and it was published on the platform.
The Selector App

Developed a MERN app that performs some specific actions with access control within the organization to empower the support team to resolve the recurring issues on their own and reduce the dependency on the engineering team.
Media Recorder
Developed my own media recorder.
During the pandemic, when we couldn't get through the daily meetings, I drew inspiration from the Google Meet platform and worked towards developing my own audio, video, and screen recorder. Currently, it supports recording the media on the local storage only, but I plan to use the calling feature similarly in the future.
