• Centralized Rescheduling Service for Callback Execution

  The Centralized Rescheduling Service was developed to simplify the execution of time-based callbacks throughout our application.

• Dynamic Renewal Banner for Subscribed Users
  -
  The Renew Banner Model project involved creating a flexible and dynamic banner system that caters to the unique needs of each user. This model serves as a non-intrusive yet effective means of notifying users about plan expirations, considering various factors such as the user's plan, expiration date, and payment method.
• Offline-Ready Image and Icon Precaching Mechanism
  -
  The Offline-Ready Image and Icon Precaching Mechanism was created to enhance the application's resilience and usability, particularly in scenarios where users might have limited or no internet connectivity. By proactively caching essential assets, such as images and icons, the mechanism guarantees that users can access critical content and functionalities even when offline.
• Priority Banner
  -
  The Priority Banner HOC serves as a powerful and flexible solution for managing and rendering banners with different priorities within our application. Banners are a crucial means of conveying information and calls to action to users, and this component ensures that they are displayed in a logical order based on their priority.

As an SDE for over 10 months, I was part of a Migration Project where I was responsible for delivering multiple features within deadlines with Code Quality and Stability on Priority. Had experience with React.js, Node.js, Redux & Webpack.
