Work Experience
Senior Developer
2021 - PRESENT
Sendground
- Performed the initial setup of Kubernetes cluster and created an NGINX ingress controller with TLS. Created a staging and a production environment.
- Deployed VROOM (vehicle routing optimization engine) to cluster as an internal service to be consumed by the main back-end service.
- Created manually triggered GitHub Actions to add and remove host names to the Ingress object.
- Implemented new features and fixed bugs in .NET Core back-end application.
- Implemented new features and fixed bugs in Angular front end.
- Refactored applications so that they fetch all configuration values from the environment.
- Created CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions for all applications in active development.

Senior Full-stack Developer
2016 - 2021
Infuy
- Built SpringBoot REST services and client Angular interfaces for Zentility, a company that aims to automate the workflow of energy brokers, delivering optimal energy contracts to their customers.
- Created a scalable white labeling scheme for a customer dashboard built with Angular. When the application loads, it fetches its style values from a REST service that inspects the HTTP host and origin headers and resolves the theme based on that.
- Implemented the client-side themes assigning the response values to custom CSS properties. The themes are applied at runtime without reloading the page.
- Handled the previous scheme built around specific CSS wrapper classes for each theme, which generated a lot of unused CSS code loaded for all sites. This would not have scaled well in the projected scenario of having more than 50 themes.
- Built infuy.com, a company marketing website, with WordPress from wireframe designs.
- Implemented features for an admin and self-serve kiosk for a movie theater. The UI was implemented using React.

Experience
Web Karaoke Player
http://karaoke-player.netlify.appA hobby project implemented in ClojureScript and deployed with Netlify.

HTML2Hiccup
https://github.com/baskeboler/html2hiccupA simple GUI tool written in Clojure that converts HTML code into valid Hiccup data structures and HTML templates into reagent components.
It consists of a window with a split panel where users paste the HTML code, and the Hiccup is displayed in the other panel. Both panels implement syntax highlighting.
