• Backend: re-designed an existing server and created a microservice-based one with NestJS, MongoDB, Docker, Nginx, Minio, and RedisDB. • DevOps: Developed GitHub Runner-baed CI/CD pipeline, Grafana, Prometheus-based observability application, and ELK-based centralized logging platform. • ML Deployment: developed a FastAPI, MinIO, MongoDB application for online predictions. Created a PoC with EvidentlyAI, Grafana, and Prometheus for monitoring Data-Drift and deployed ML-models' performance.

In this position, I was part of two projects. Initially, I was hired to do R&D on Docker and Kubernetes. I tested both on-prem and hosted solutions to figure out which one would be more suitable for our needs. I have also developed a CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins' Pipeline as a Code feature. Then I was assigned to the core team to work as a backend developer for ProxyVoting - a voting solution on BlockChain, built with NodeJS, Java, Kafka, etc.

BizMotion focuses on automating the day-to-day activities of pharmaceutical industries. As a backend developer, I was tasked to develop the backend of the system that was made with Java (Spring), Hibernate, and PostgreSQL. I have acquired an in-depth understanding of how to build a layered, modular system following industry best-practices.

OvGU's Data and Knowledge Engineering prepares its pupils with the essential skills in researching and developing novel ML-based solutions for solving real-world problems. I have acquired theoretical knowledge about machine learning, information retrieval, stream processing, etc. and attended numerous seminars and projects to hone my practical skills as well.
