...feature set I've coded was making an Android phone act as a POS device by locking the user in the app and integrating third-party thermal printer libraries.
Work Experience
Full-stack Developer
2020 - 2024
Sports Card Investor, LLC
- Developed and scaled a platform from databases of thousands of collectibles to millions. This included adding new features, creating new products and MVPs, and fixing issues within business constraints.
- Worked on data processing pipelines to achieve data filtration, accuracy, and scaling using SQL databases, AWS Lambdas, AWS Simple Queue Service (SQS), and other needed technologies.
- Created a process used to update the sales data related to collectibles continuously. This process was infinitely adjustable, prioritizing some collectibles over others, together with forecasting and estimation metrics.
- Built a collection tracking system where users could retroactively measure their collections. This went past a simple collection management system since it also included the ability to edit things in the past according to values.
- Developed an alert system so that users could be notified whenever different parameters of certain collectibles changed (like value or sales volume).
- Built a complex admin tool for managing and monitoring the collectibles and data flows. This tool added certain smart limits so that admins could have a safety net over their actions.
- Iterated and built several POCs and MVPs for different features and projects. Some materialized into mature, grown products adjacent to the core applications.
- Wrote and constantly optimized database queries and data sources. Used technologies like AWS OpenSearch, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB to achieve smart searching algorithms for a better end-user experience.
- Created an index tracking system that allowed admins to replicate indices like the S&P 500 but for collectibles. This includes past value tracking, managing set indices, and their visibility to the public in the UI.
- Worked closely with the product team to determine the best solutions for different circumstances while advising on development paths dependent on feature importance, scalability concerns, and cost.

- Implemented an in-app purchase system both on React Native and its Node.js server counterpart.
- Built a way to manage contacts both stored on the phone or Google account and in the app's own contact management system.
- Created a reusable, customizable, and efficient component for displaying different banner messages to the user in a React Native application.
- Debugged and fixed a lot of issues with the application such as not waking up on calls or messages and implemented specific VoIP behaviors.

Evozon
- Helped develop a specialized recruitment platform using Next.js and Node.js.
- Created an app's admin dashboard; the app dealt with specialized recruiting that handled the entire data of the platform.
- Developed a set of features for a React Native Android app that denied a user the possibility of closing or exiting the application without a PIN code even between phone restarts.
- Built a mobile application in React Native for small store owners that needed to handle multiple large forms using React Native and MobX.
- Composed migration scripts that altered the databases in multiple environments when issues and errors occurred.
- Developed a native integration for React Native that allowed an application to communicate with a built-in or Bluetooth thermal printer for printing receipts from an Android or iOS device.
- Created a React Native component designed to handle the layout of the keyboard and buttons for screens that contained forms with more than ten input types.
- Built a feature that allowed translating a JSON template for an invoice into a rudimentary layout system that a thermal printer would understand.
- Handled a production database using Firebase complete with optimizations for speed and efficiency.

Experience
Voice Interactive Podcasts
https://github.com/TStupariu/pof_pod_app/tree/master/PodcastAppI built two proof-of-concept applications allowing podcasters to define interactions over their existing audio tracks. Afterwards, listeners could interact with those defined polls and leave comments along those tracks using only their voice, creating an interaction that does not require visual attention. The paltform was built using React Native, ReactJS and Firebase Firestore.
Team Socializing Platform
I built a web application proof of concept that allowed the members of a larger department to interact with each other and get to know each other on a more personal level. I used Next.js and Firebase to quickly develop a started feature set. I also used Firebase's cloud functions for features like automatic background image resizing.
Online Virtual Classroom Application
https://github.com/TStupariu/vboard-vueI built an application that allowed a teacher to simulate a blackboard within a class using HTML Canvas, and live stream his drawings/writing to the entire class. I built the live stream using WebRTC P2P video streaming which allowed the actual data stream to not have to pass through a media server that I owned. I also implemented a live chat using Firebase.
