Responsibilities: - Ensuring scalable design and industry-standard software development practices are followed. - Seeing through requirements from conception to completion. - Thorough technical and process documentation. - Brainstorming new product ideas and UX designs. Key Accomplishments: - Built a development team of 5 members. - Owned the migration of the Product/Process from an external contract-based technical team to the in-house dev team that we built. - Owned and delivered multiple requirements including role-based content delivery, mobile-tablet support, and authentication system migration from Auth0 to Azure B2C.

Responsibilities: - Gathering requirements from the business and translating them to user stories. - Identifying improvement areas, both in the process and application levels, and implementing solutions to make the application better. - Carrying out design and code reviews. - Coming up with UI design. - Resolving any production or lower environment issues reported by clients. Key Accomplishments: - Single-handedly conceptualized, designed, coded, and deployed (in AWS) an admin portal for managing user access to AWS QuickSight. The complete portal was done in 2 months using ReactJS, NodeJs, AWS Lambda, AWS API Gateway, EC2, Terraform, and Serverless. - Designed and developed a customized reusable Accumulator component in ReactJS that could be used across the organization. - Migrated the Authentication system of an internal web app from an LDAP-based solution to a Ping Federate OIDC solution.

Responsibilities: - Gathering requirements from the business and translating them to actionable tasks. - Identifying improvement areas, both in the process and application levels, and implementing solutions to make the application better. - Carrying out design and code reviews. - Create design documents involving UML diagrams. - Address ethical hack and other security vulnerability issues. - Support hundreds of developers from 60+ LOB teams that make use of NEXEN UI Platform. Key Accomplishments: - Migrated the platform to a modern, scalable, enterprise-level Authorization System built on top of Oracle, from a legacy, non-scalable system built on top of Sybase. - Completely automated the build-mastering and release process by building a tool using Jenkins, thereby saving at least 40 hours of human effort every 2 weeks and reducing human-errors in the release process. - Designed and implemented lazy loading of Angular JS packages on demand basis. This had a best-case impact of reducing the login time by ~30 seconds. - Architected, designed, and implemented multi-language support for the platform with language switches not requiring any page reload. The architecture also supports lazy loading of translations for better performance. - Cut down an aggregate of ~300 seconds of Continuous Integration build time by promoting efficient ways of writing test cases. - Led the effort for migrating from a legacy Vertica-based metrics collection system (Digital Pulse) to an ElasticSearch & Kafka-based system (Digital Pulse 2.0).
