Featured Work
Real-Time Click-Through Rate Analysis
The Challenge
High latency in processing user impressions and clicks for ad-tech analytics.
The Solution
Implemented a Flink streaming job with Kafka as the message bus to process data in real-time.
Impact
Reduces data processing latency from minutes to milliseconds, enabling real-time decision making.
Kong API Gateway with Observability
The Challenge
Lack of visibility into microservices traffic and performance bottlenecks.
The Solution
Deployed Kong API Gateway with OpenTelemetry and OpenObserve for end-to-end tracing and metrics.
Impact
Improves system reliability and reduces mean time to resolution (MTTR) for API issues.
QnA on Knowledge Graph
The Challenge
Difficulty in retrieving accurate answers from unstructured data using traditional search.
The Solution
Built a RAG system using Neo4j as a knowledge graph to provide context-aware answers.
Impact
Enhances answer accuracy and relevance by leveraging graph relationships.

What People Say
“I entered in knowing absolutely nothing but you never treated me like a novice, you shared your intellect with me just as any other developer, and I won't ever forget that. You also brought the fun memories in Zeza, and I have never seen anyone else with this much knowledge and experience be so down to earth and funny. All in all, you have inspired me, and I won't ever forget what I learned through you.”
