Cloud Solutions Architect / Sept 2022 - Current
Starting as a QA automation tester, I quickly worked my way up to eventually becoming a full-on Cloud
solutions architect. As the main architect for Quantify, I was responsible for improving the performance of
the cloud-native application. I made each microservice stateless, where multiple instances of the same
microservice can start and stop on demand without the need to sync up state, reduced the amount of locking
needed when executing PostgreSQL queries in parallel, did Ahead-Of-Time compilation using GraalVM to reduce
startup times, allowing services to better respond to sudden high loads, allowed asynchronous communication
between services using RabbitMQ, and finally, compressed each microservice into a single, small, independent
executable that the Linux kernel can run directly without any additional programs, deamons, nor libraries.
