TGLab

Junior Backend Developer

Sports data platform serving betting operators

What was broken

  • —Data scraping systems crashed under unpredictable external source changes
  • —Database performance degraded under continuous load (>20 TB dataset)
  • —No monitoring or alerting - incidents discovered by users, not engineers
  • —Manual testing slowed releases and missed edge cases

What I solved

  • —Built resilient data pipelines handling real-time sports data across REST, WebSockets, and message queues
  • —Diagnosed and resolved SQL performance bottlenecks in high-throughput scenarios
  • —Implemented monitoring and alerting infrastructure reducing incident response time
  • —Introduced automated testing (frontend + backend) improving release confidence
  • —Participated in container orchestration and emergency recovery procedures

Business Impact

This was my foundation - learning how production systems fail and how to prevent it. Handled large-scale data flows but didn't design betting logic itself.

Engines of Fury

Backend Engineer

Web3 gaming startup with real-time multiplayer and blockchain integration

What was broken

  • —Authentication didn't exist-all non-public resources were exposed
  • —CI/CD pipelines were non-functional, blocking deployments
  • —No testing infrastructure, making changes dangerous
  • —Microservices communicated unreliably across distributed systems

What I built

  • —Designed and implemented secure authentication protecting all internal resources (REST APIs, microservices, WebSocket servers)
  • —Rebuilt broken CI/CD pipelines enabling automated Kubernetes deployments
  • —Established testing practices (unit + integration tests) reducing production errors
  • —Integrated Ethereum blockchain and Apache Kafka for reliable event-driven architecture
  • —Managed full cloud infrastructure: load balancers, reverse proxies, API gateways, SSL automation

Business Impact

Designed, implemented and debugged large part of their backend infrastructure.

Clients came with 'it's broken, we don't know why'

Solution

  • —Diagnosed Lambda runtime failures through CloudWatch log analysis
  • —Implemented fixes to OAuth flows involving CloudFront/AWS Lambda distributions
  • —Resolved S3 file access issues blocking production workflows
  • —Fixed IAM permission configurations for Strapi CMS + S3 media uploads

Business Impact

Found root causes and implemented fixes, not workarounds.

Build speed optimization

Multiple clients

Problem

Clients were using legacy bundler configurations leading to slow builds and deployments

Solution

  • —Replaced Webpack and Rollup with Rspack for multiple clients

Business Impact

Build times reduced from 1 minute to under 5 seconds, leading to faster deployments and improved developer experience.
