Work Experience
Lead Full-stack Engineer
QBurst
- Worked with global aerospace giant Safran, leading the development of Smartpipe, an aircraft data connectivity platform leveraging AWS IoT Greengrass to securely connect aircraft systems to the cloud for real-time data processing and operations.
- Designed and developed multiple serverless services using TypeScript, integrating AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Neptune, Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS), Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), and Amazon Cognito.
- Built a React-based front-end portal with real-time data visualization and user access control and developed RESTful APIs in TypeScript for secure and scalable cloud communication.
- Implemented a role-based access control (RBAC) system and multi-factor authentication (MFA) with Amazon Cognito.
- Developed several REST API microservices for a global site handling over two million hits per day and designed and developed an auth token exchange service for secure API authentication.
- Created a back-end for front-end (BFF) service to optimize API calls and performance.
- Containerized Node.js applications and React-based SPAs using Docker and developed a high-performance React front end optimized for low-bandwidth regions.
- Configured NGINX and NGINX JavaScript as a regional router for SPAs, optimizing content delivery. I also set up CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins for automated deployment.
Engineer – Research and Development
Greenturn Idea Factory
- Joined as an early employee, contributing across back-end systems, firmware, and front-end portals.
- Designed a modular PCB layout, splitting it into three stackable sections connected via headers, making it easier for technicians to service and replace individual parts instead of the entire board.
- Diagnosed and resolved critical firmware bugs, leveraging strong debugging and analytical skills.
