Experience
Customer Platform as a Service

• Onboarded the entire team to follow the CI/CD process.
• Engaged with stakeholders and BAs to understand the requirements and translate them into MVPs.
• Implemented robust and complex REST API integrations.

eApp
Built reusable Lightning components. Designed a solution to have a parent component that controls the business logic and passes data to child components. All the child components are reusable dummy components.
Modernization Project
Completed a few proofs of concepts to consolidate multiple soap integrations to a single REST API. Pursued the best solution from the outcome. Revisited integration payloads and trimmed them down to what's required for the current business. Shifted business logic from custom objects built long ago to now available standard objects.
This is an instance with massive data, and the implementation was complex with the number of active users. Still, we as a team could sail through it easily by following Agile methodology, delivering small changes which are quick wins.
