Created a version of the Pullscription Web App using Vue.js, Typescript, Node.js, HTML, CSS, and JS as a part of training to understand frontend and backend tasks thoroughly giving me insight into what frontend needs from the backend. Optimized and debugged ETL jobs along with tests that imported comic books related data into the database to reduce end-to-end runtimes by 60%.

Optimized and debugged ETL jobs along with tests that imported comic books related data into the database to reduce end-to-end runtimes by 60%. Implemented FAST APIs to expose programmatic read and write access to the database to query the imported data. This allowed the frontend team to create a UI for admin users to manage the our catalogs easily. Built an error logging and collection system. This enabled us to build real-time alerts, reducing response times to outages by 80%.

Oct 2022 - Sep 2023
Developed a photogrammetric 3D scanner under $1000 using Arduinos in serial communication to scan donors to be passed through a matching algorithm. The algorithm finds the best match for patient’s knee arthroplasty. Implemented Camera movement using the Servo and Stepper motors in a loop to be able to take photos from different angles allowing accuracy to be as close as possible to a $45000 scanner. Co-authored Abstract for White Paper to be published.
