My role focused on building and maintaining Ruby on Rails APIs that powered lab test ordering, results processing, and secure data exchange between clinics and labs. I upgraded legacy Rails applications with full test coverage, ensuring compliance and long-term maintainability. I integrated React frontends with Rails APIs to deliver seamless workflows for clinicians and lab staff.

I worked on a large-scale Ruby on Rails application that powers financial advice delivery across Australia. I upgraded the application to the latest Rails versions with full test coverage, ensuring better stability and maintainability. I implemented new features using Stimulus and Hotwire to improve responsiveness and user experience. For deployments, I introduced Kamal to achieve reliable zero-downtime releases, managing infrastructure on AWS ECS and Fargate. I collaborated with cross-functional teams to troubleshoot issues, streamline development workflows, and deliver features aligned with business goals. This role strengthened my expertise in modernizing and scaling complex Rails monoliths while maintaining high quality and performance standards.

I led a team of five developers building a distributed workforce automation platform. The system broke down complex data entry and processing tasks into smaller subtasks completed by a global workforce. I implemented core back-end features using Ruby on Rails, applied Agile practices, and introduced TDD/BDD to ensure high code quality. I optimized architecture for large-scale performance, integrated DevOps tools like Jenkins, Chef, and Ansible, and researched Ruby gems to accelerate development. My work directly improved CloudFactory’s ability to handle high-volume data digitization and made the platform more efficient, scalable, and reliable for enterprise clients.
