My cool experiments over the years
Built a REST API that translates chat commands and time to a universal format, sends data to another service so it can fetch calendar from Zimbra Calendar API. Enabled quick meeting scheduling from chat within seconds.
Served top 3 contextual advertisements alongside the news results, based on search keyword, by implementing an ad-serving application, on Apache Solr platform and using Java, Servlets, Javascript and Apache Tomcat. Ad Serving algorithm was based on combination of Cost per click (CPC), bid price, relevance of the advertisement to both the search as well as the query.
Some stuff that I am great at!
I have sound experience in design of REST, SOAP, RPC-based APIs. I have made API design diagrams and documentation, held technical discussions and API specs.
I have built CIAM integrations featuring authentication, authorization, user lookups. I also have worked on features such as SSO, MFA and session management.
Worked on building CI / CD pipelines, managing VMs in OCI, server-side scripting, load testing and improving efficiency of Zimbra (email) servers.
