  During my time at LGC, I worked primarily on the B2B Client Portal team. When I first joined, the project had accumulated a significant amount of technical debt due to numerous iterations over the original proof of concept for the platform. Main achievements: • Implemented comprehensive unit tests which covered all business logic. Prior to my involvement, there were no tests in place • Tackled technical debt without impacting the delivery of new features. This involved a series of iterative, strategic improvements over a period of time • Improved several performance issues by leading the design and implementation of a caching layer • Designed a role based access control system • Lead the implementation of many tools, processes and practises introduced to solve technical problems across the organization. This included: a properly implemented authentication system, configuration & secret management, monitoring, observability and defining a good architecture for the platform. As the result of the previous points, Client Portal became a "reference implementation" which was later on used by different teams in several projects. I briefly worked on a different team where I successfully implemented integration testing by using docker compose on the CI pipeline (programmatically) Show less

  At Vortal I worked on several greenfield innovation projects. These included different PoC to experiment with new technologies, ideas and the SCRUM framework. At every project I have worked as a full stack developer having responsibilities ranging from implementing new angular components to creating new CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps. I've also improved my web scraping skills by creating a new product on the e-tendering space which combines opportunities from different sources using different methods (APIs, CSV files, HTML scraping) and reverse engineering techniques in order to centralize everything in one platform. I choose scrapy as the scraping framework. During this time I used the following technologies: • Angular 7 • .NET Framework 4.7 • .NET Core • SQL Server • Python (pandas, sklearn, scipy) Show less
