I was responsible for leading the development of the first SAAS product of the company a Medical Image Viewer-as-a-Service (https://flexview.ai/), from the initial design phase to its general availability launch. This involved building the team and selecting the tech stack, which included OHIF, Next.Js, Nest.js, and Postgres deployed on AWS. Additionally, I established engineering practices such as continuous integration and delivery, test-first development, mob-programming, and real-time infrastructure monitoring.

My items delivered in this team include: * Built from scratch an open-source-based performance framework using Argo Workflow running on top of Kubernetes (GKE), making it scalable horizontally as needed. Moreover, running as a single test instance, I performed calling from a simple form and ran tests of several different technologies including but not limited to Jmeter, K6, and Puppeteer. * Reduced the time to prepare performance tests from several hours to a few seconds with the click of a button. * Introduced the metrics-obsessed culture, leading front-end and back-end engineers to create and watch performance metrics. * Built several Grafana dashboards to watch the performance on the Platform, Customer, and User level; the same dashboards are used today from Dev to Prod to observe performance at all levels. * Provide glue work from Architecture, Development, and SRE teams. With expertise in all three areas, I help the information flow from all teams smoothly and help all to speak the same language. Before my current project, my deliveries also included but were not limited to: * Migrated all services from Azure to Google Cloud. After the Change Healthcare acquisition, I led the migration from AKS to GKS (Google Kubernetes Service), Azure Blobs to Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Service Bus to Google PubSub. * Migrated from legacy deployment using Azure VM to AKS, creating and reviewing all k8s service and deployments definitions. * Built the CD pipeline, including database migration, terraform, image update, post-deployment functional tests running, and notifications. * Built a monitoring infrastructure with Prometheus, Kibana, Grafana, and Linkerd to operate the AKS infra.

Then my next challenge on tenfold was to take part in a task force to improve the NPS and reduce to 0 the number of outages. As a part of this job, I took the responsibility to increase the backend code coverage to > 70% and also fixing some edge case bugs that only happened in the production environment. These two tasks give me a new vision of the code, and system architecture which soon made me a Lead Engineer.
