At Academia, I re-architected the V2 backend and AWS infrastructure, and automated CI/CD deployment pipelines. This work improved system reliability to 99.99% uptime and reduced infrastructure overhead.

I optimized Laravel services, database queries, Redis queues, and AWS infrastructure, reducing system load and increasing operational efficiency by 40%.

I engineered live streaming infrastructure with Nginx RTMP and multi-bitrate HLS packaging. I also developed an FFmpeg transcoding and multi-DRM pipeline using Widevine and Apple FairPlay, delivered over multi-region CDNs for 500,000+ active users.

Previously, I built a JSON-driven pricing and business rules engine at PrestoEat and worked on a high-throughput event platform at Wahaexpo. My experience also includes WebSockets, job queues, custom SMS gateways, and freelance software projects.
