Experience

Event Management System

A portal for organizing events where users can register with multiple payment gateways, such as PayPal, Stripe, CCAvenue, and Braintree. The portal provides numerous features, including upgrading, downgrading, and canceling seats, which further trigger payment/refund requests.

Used WebSockets to reflect the live seat availability count on the UI and AWS for deployments and object storage.

Recommendation and Personalization Engine

An integrated recommendation engine that uses AWS services, enabling SMBs to make the right software choice. It provides recommendations to users based on their history visits, product popularity, and top category products.

I set up the complete AWS serverless architecture to obtain user interactions and train the data model, using AWS Cloudformation, AWS step functions, and AWS Lambda functions.

Chrome Extension

A Google Chrome extension is used to download videos in chunks with Web Workers in background threads and store them in Chrome storage to enable offline playing mode.

Added a feature that allows users to pause and resume the download process per their requirements.

Eadie-Tech

A MERN stack-based project where the microservices connected with a third-party healthcare device feed data to our DB, and once the data is fed, the change streams are triggered and data are transmitted to the FE via web sockets.

E-signature on PDF

A web application built with React where users can upload a PDF file and create a digital signature and some modifications on it by adding text and saving it or storing it in the S3 to serve as a backup in their accounts.
