System & API Development: Engineered the foundational API for the new Inventory Reconciliation Service (IRS) and executed the seamless migration of critical data from the legacy Trade Finance system. Designed and implemented a sophisticated putaway strategy based on entity, source, and sorting constraints to optimize warehouse inventory placement and efficiency. Re-architected core product logic for the Bistro inventory system, introducing a priority-based model to enable more strategic and efficient inventory management. Led a source entity migration initiative, unifying disparate data models to streamline data access and simplify system architecture.
Platform Enhancement & Reliability: Resolved a critical Redis cross-slot error, significantly improving the reliability and performance of the distributed caching layer. Rectified a persistent issue in the Return Stock Transfer Order (RSTO) system, leading to a measurable increase in inventory accuracy and a reduction in false blocks. Enhanced the core boilerplate-go-service by replacing New Relic with Datadog and refactoring the architecture, improving scalability, and accelerating new service development for the engineering team. Played a key role in the IMS deprecation project, successfully migrating legacy warehouse systems to modern infrastructure with minimal disruption to operations.
Automation & Observability: Integrated Datadog with the Kafka messaging pipeline, establishing real-time monitoring and alerting to enhance visibility into system health. Established a robust pre-production environment and developed automation scripts for populating test data, improving the reliability and efficiency of testing workflows. Created a custom GitHub Action to automate test coverage checks within the CI/CD pipeline, enforcing code quality standards, and preventing regressions.
