Full-stack Developer
2022 - 2023
Emergent Layer Corp.
- Developed an app where users could drag-and-drop building blocks like File Upload, Data Source, Filter, Sort, Python Scripting, File Download, and Google Sheet Export and connected them to a graph to be executed in order.
- Implemented multiple output types that graph nodes can support, like spreadsheet tables, JSON, charts, and images. Each node can be customized to accept and produce certain output types.
- Built a microservice architecture implementing Node.js, NestJS, Python, AWS Lambda, Rust, and Actix APIs. Used MongoDB with GridFS for storage. Implemented manual encryption for GridFS data and used automatic encryption for standard collections.
- Designed efficient spreadsheet-like table storage using GridFS to store encrypted data with fast row lookup supporting spreadsheet tables of up to five million rows. Contributed to the open source MongoDB driver for Rust to extend GridFS support.
- Created a Python scripting runtime to execute a code written by the user that accepts spreadsheet or JSON inputs from previous nodes. The runtime was executed in AWS Lambda and was able to support external libraries import, HTTP requests, and AI.
- Conducted code validation tests for user code using a Python AST traverser to ensure conformity with required templates and validate return types and other business logic. Executed the user's code within a strict and secure environment.
- Implemented a Storage API using Rust and Actix to efficiently stream, store, and retrieve spreadsheet, JSON, and other storage types while adding efficient and low-memory file uploads for CSV, XLSX, and JSON file types.
- Added built-in connections to a large number of eCommerce, finance, banking, and HR APIs, custom connections compatible with PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Amazon S3, FTP, Google Sheets, Slack, and other external APIs, and implemented SSH tunneling support.
- Designed an infrastructure using Terraform and deployed to AWS. Implemented automated CI/CD pipelines, using GitHub Actions, that push images to AWS ECR repositories.
- Mentored and managed junior colleagues on best engineering and security practices, conducted extensive PR reviews, and helped them implement the most architecturally correct solutions.

Full-stack React and Python Developer
2022 - 2022
Gensler - Main
- Developed a web application for planning office workspaces using Python FastAPI, React, and PostgreSQL. The application takes multiple office parameters as inputs and produces a recommended number of workspaces to build in the office.
- Designed and implemented a customizable calculation engine that supports multiple workspace types, worker types (technical/non-technical/sales/etc.), custom office spaces (like a kitchen), and specific client-oriented spaces (like a garage).
- Integrated the OpenID Connect protocol for authentication and authorization using the client's SSO. The client's teams use the application internally and support multi-role workloads (administrator, manager, initiator, and read-only).
- Led a team of two other developers and worked in an agile environment.

- Extended an admin dashboard built with React and Node.js (Express.js) for an eCommerce website to generate and import Excel-based product lists. Integrated the product pipeline from an external PostgreSQL database to the application databases.
- Implemented a custom search feature in a website for blogs, videos, audios, and articles using Elasticsearch and ASP.NET. Created an indexing cron job with real-time indexing updates in an admin panel using Websockets.
- Built a web application using React and NestJS for uploading, downloading, and processing large files of around 20GB using the AWS S3 service. These files serve as rich content describing eCommerce products like videos, audio, images, and more.
- Worked on a complex US-based financial application using ASP.NET and Angular that generated financial documents and agreements with prefilled data from the system according to the different laws across all 50 states.
- Extended an internal office check-in and -out progressive web app (PWA) by integrating Outlook API to retrieve available meeting rooms and people to greet guests and Slack API to send messages to necessary employees about the guests.

Experience
How Many FPS?
A Python, React, and NextJS-based application for gamers that help them choose the most optimal hardware and graphics configurations using machine learning (ML). I was the How Many FPS (frames per second) full-stack developer who built REST API services, ML algorithms, and UI experience.
Programming Language Leg
https://github.com/laleksiunas/leg-languageA simple statically-typed high-level programming language with built-in parallelism support. I designed language syntax, behavior, and types system. This project was created using C++, LLVM, and POSIX libraries for parallelism.
Inline SVG components ID generator
https://github.com/laleksiunas/inline-svg-unique-idA library to generate SVG IDs in runtime for React applications. The library aims to solve browser paint issues when inner SVG elements are referenced by ID. Additionally, there are multiple inline React SVG components rendered on the page.
