Experience
Online Pharmacy Shop
I was the senior back-end developer building an online pharmacy shop with a proper microservices architectural style and business logic. The application allows users to upload medicine prescriptions, buy medication online, and get them delivered at a convenient place and time.
The back end was written on .NET Core web API from scratch using C#, and the architecture used involved microservices, CQRS, Event Sourcing, and REST/RESTful APIs. The technologies and design patterns used include Apache Kafka, Orleans, Saga, and MediatR. The databases used were PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Elasticsearch.

Word Recognition and Natural Language Processing Model and Training Software
I built a Georgian-language word recognition and labeling model using spaCy and fastText vectors. The primary purpose of this model was to find important keywords and label them according to user input text. I have also built an application for training this model using Python.
Insurance ERP System
https://mygpi.ge/The project involved managing the company's workflow system for customers and employees. The employee side of the project aimed at organizing company processes and distributing tasks inside departments. On the other hand, the purpose of the customer side of the project was to facilitate services for clients, including incident creation for car insurance online and requests for compensation for medical services or medication.
The project's back end was written using C# and REST/RESTful APIs, while the database used was the Microsoft SQL Server. The ERP system was implemented as a microservices architecture.
