Experience

  • Social Marketplace App
    http://www.vendefy.com/

    In this project, I worked on both the front end (native iOS app) and the back end (Java and Spring Boot with a Neo4J Graph database), fixing bugs, and adding new critical functionalities.

    On the front end, I updated the existing UI, added new screens, and created integrations with the back-end server. In addition, I released several builds for testing, using TestFlight, as well as a complete build for production. On the back end, I fixed functional bugs, added integrations with Plaid and Stripe APIs, and implemented new business logic. In addition, I built and released the fixes to the production server. Finally, I reviewed customers' resources hosted on AWS and was able to reduce their AWS monthly bills by approximately $1,000.

    The code was committed to the client's GitLab repository.

  • Dating Web Service
    https://fireupdesire.com/

    A pet project that I did to explore the Django/Django REST framework along with Angular 8 and HTML5 (Canvas). I designed and implemented the project from end-to-end, the infrastructure, and the deployment to AWS public cloud.

  • Shopify Store

    An online store that I built on top of the Shopify platform, connecting it to payment providers, third-party apps, and enhancements. I did the translations as well as the UI modifications to support the right-to-left layout. In addition, I wrote a product scraper for the supplier website and a fully automated inventory and product sync lifecycle.

  • Shopify Store
    http://tokyo-7.myshopify.com/

    The project scope included:
    1. Enhancing an existing theme with new sections
    2. Customizing existing sections
    3. Performing UI optimization for mobile
    4. Integrating and customizing third-party apps

    The project was successfully completed in a week for a US-based client.

  • Shopify App | End-to-End Development

    The project was implemented with the following features:
    1. Admin panel
    a. Author and customize quizzes
    b. Monitor performance
    c. Help section

    2. Storefront widgets
    a. Embedded quiz
    b. Popup quiz triggered by button
    c. Popup quiz triggered by leave store intention

    3. Host the app on AWS
    a. AWS S3 for storage
    b. AWS CloudFront for CDN services
    c. AWS EC2 and ALB for hosting

    The app was successfully deployed to Shopify's app store. Although this project was delivered, I'm still working with the client on new features and new apps.
