I built and currently maintain the entire backend for Glass

Used GraphQL federation to independently scale each area of the backend

Wrote efficient and robust code using things such as GraphQL dataloader to batch SQL queries and provide data with low latency

Ensured scalability to handle the demand of thousands of ANS customers

Worked closely with the UX and data teams to design and think through new features

Worked with multiple data sources such as SQL, MongoDB and third party API's

Worked with real-time data over GraphQL Subscriptions (WebSockets)

Mentored junior and mid level team members, supporting them where needed, helping them to become better engineers in their career

Worked on building out backend API features

Worked on building out the front end for their customer facing store front UI

Took ownership of the entire PayPal integration into their store checkout

Worked on their PLT Marketplace app, handling authentication tokens and sessions from a front end perspective

Helped to enhance/fix some of the features half built by some contractors

Worked under pressure staying late nights to complete features in order to meet deadlines

Designed and built the backend API's which interacted with different data sources and systems

Delegated work to other engineers on my team providing support for them where needed

Conducted PR code reviews to ensure any code merged met the standard for the project

This was my first time working in a proper team of developers

Demonstrated senior skills by mentoring others and having the ability to work efficiently and autonomously

Worked on building out backend API's to provide data to the front end

Helped team members and transferred knowledge that I had learnt from previous roles

Worked on a smart parking application POC which was built using Python which ran on a Raspberry Pi hooked up to a webcam

Trained and used my own image classification AI model to determine if a car parking space was vacant or occupied

Has the opportunity to work on some cool POC's to show off to the business

Had exposure to many different technologies

Got to explore what areas of software engineering I was interested in without the worry of anything being production ready
