Dreamshop.io

http://dreamshop.io
A multi-tenant SaaS eCommerce platform that allows users to start their own online business for free.

It was my first startup project where I acted as the lead developer from the day it started in 2014 until 2018.

Headless B2B Agrar eCommerce Platform

This headless eCommerce platform was built with Next.js on top of a Magento 2 back end. It has its separate authentication layer that uses AWS Cognito, as well as a responsive web design that supports all devices—from small mobile phones to 5K desktops.

I oversaw the back-end development and GraphQL integration. My work also included the Magento 2 product, cart, and order integration.

Real-time Sail Yacht Tracking and Racing App

A React native app that tracks yachts, scores them in races, and runs simple and complex handicap scoring methods. The app handles millions of data points per second, processes scoring data, propagates the data to spectators, and assesses crew performance. It is hosted on AWS and can automatically scale from virtually zero traffic to millions of requests per second.

Voice Chat and Video Communication Tool

A React-based voice chat and video communication tool used for internal company communication and team management. The application has its own proprietary communication protocol, which allows it to handle thousands of messages per second with a very low footprint. Users are able to send messages in real time, use a rich search engine, create groups and teams, manage tasks, and more. It uses Twilio for voice and video communication.
