Technical Skills
Cloud & Infrastructure (AWS)
Extensive experience designing and deploying serverless architectures on AWS. Built and maintained multi-environment backends with Amplify, authored CDK infrastructure stacks, and implemented real-time data pipelines with AppSync subscriptions.
Frontend Development
Building modern, responsive web applications across multiple production projects. Proficient with Next.js App Router, complex state management with Zustand, interactive mapping with Mapbox, and rich data visualization with ECharts.
Backend Development
Building serverless backends with AWS Lambda, designing GraphQL schemas and resolvers for AppSync, implementing Stripe payment and subscription lifecycle management with webhooks, and creating automated transactional email systems.
Data Science & Visualization
Built data analysis pipelines for environmental air quality monitoring. Created interactive dashboards with Streamlit and Gradio, generated statistical visualizations for scientific reporting, and processed time-series data from InfluxDB.
Database & Storage
Designing and optimizing NoSQL data models in DynamoDB, querying time-series environmental data from InfluxDB, implementing relational schemas with Supabase/PostgreSQL, and managing S3 storage with access control and lifecycle policies.
DevOps & Tooling
Managing multi-environment deployments with Amplify and GitHub Actions, authoring AWS CDK infrastructure-as-code, administering Linux servers with systemd services, and configuring CI/CD pipelines. Experience with Cloudflare for DNS and domain management.
IoT & Hardware
Built IoT environmental monitoring systems using Raspberry Pi with I2C sensors logging environmental data (temperature, humidity, pressure, air quality) to InfluxDB with OLED display interfaces.
Integrations & Additional
Integrated Stripe for subscription management with webhook-driven lifecycle events, OpenAI for AI-powered analytics, Mapbox for geospatial features, and Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection. Experience with end-to-end testing frameworks and building desktop applications.
Projects
PlumeMapper — Environmental Monitoring Platform
Full-stack AWS-powered platform for real-time environmental data monitoring and air quality analysis. Features GraphQL subscriptions for live updates, interactive Mapbox mapping, ECharts visualizations, and automated PDF reporting.
AWS Serverless Infrastructure (CDK)
Production-grade infrastructure-as-code using AWS CDK with TypeScript. Multi-stack architecture deploying Lambda functions, AppSync APIs, DynamoDB tables, S3 buckets, Cognito auth, and CI/CD pipelines across development and production environments.
Data Science & Analytics Pipeline
Data analysis system for environmental monitoring. Built with Python, Jupyter, and Streamlit/Gradio dashboards for interactive statistical visualizations and time-series analysis over InfluxDB data.
Stripe Subscription & Payment System
End-to-end payment processing integrated with AWS serverless backend. Handles subscription lifecycle management, webhook-driven billing events, customer portal integration, and secure payment analytics via Lambda and DynamoDB.
