Moreover, I developed a data analytics platform for enterprises, offering insights on device health, usage, and issues. It empowers IT admins with crucial data, helps identify issues proactively, and reduces the need for expertise.
Administrators can gain an improved understanding of their devices' health and usage and troubleshoot more effectively.

As a Senior Engineer on a Back-End team at Endurance, a company that drives the online success of millions of small businesses globally through various products and technology, I played a pivotal role in building and maintaining their comprehensive, unified backend platform.

Our team, comprised of six members, utilized a technology stack that included Java, Postgres DB, Java-Spring, Hibernate, Redis, and ActiveMQ. My responsibilities encompassed the design, coding, and management of new components within the team.
One of my notable contributions was the development of an API Caching Framework from the ground up. This involved implementing request and response caching at the Kong API Gateway level, which significantly improved our system's efficiency and performance.
