This included an SMTP-based integration that processes around 10k alarms per minute from cameras worldwide. I wrote Node.js, Vue, C++, and C# code. I spearheaded an infrastructure cost optimization effort that resulted in a ~30% reduction in our monthly AWS bill and decreased our average Postgres DB CPU utilization by ~40%. I re-wrote several optimized queries and improved latencies for different reporting and analysis tools offered by Calipsa, resulting in a more reliable Postgres backend. I also gained significant experience playing a product+dev role when directly interfacing with customers in the video surveillance and security industry across the UK, US, and Latin America. Calipsa was acquired by Motorola Solutions in 2022.

We are leveraging supervised classification models for image and speech analysis to accurately identify areas for conducting surveys and to ensure quality assurance of the submitted answers. In this capacity, I have taken on a full-stack role to develop a React SPA and Node.js-based REST APIs. Additionally, I am working on a business-consumer mass-messaging application. Our stack includes a Rails 5 REST API, Postgresql, MongoDB, Redis, S3, React, and the app comes with a full-featured ActionCable-based chat server. I have been entrusted with the comprehensive architectural design and I am highly proficient in every component of the stack. I have also made substantial contributions to a social media advertising platform, built on Node and Meteor, that enables real-time, hyper-local targeting based on recent user locations and proximity (using Twitter APIs).
