Platform Architecture
21 achievements
- Designed a comprehensive infrastructure framework for DTU impacting 14 departments, featuring flexible modules, unified data pipelines, and structured support strategies for long‑term adoption.
- Architected, created, and managed 100 PostgreSQL, MS SQL, and Google BigQuery data warehouse databases with primarily GIS and time‑series data, optimizing performance and scalability.
- Led the software development of a GIS map application, driving revenue growth by 10x and positioning the product as a primary data asset.
- Directed full‑stack GIS map development, overseeing PostgreSQL, Mapbox, ReactJS, and NodeJS to deliver an integrated solution.
- Overhauled internal processes, saving 8,000 hours by improving software architecture, systems, and scheduling efficiency.
- Architected, developed, implemented, supported infrastructure, data processing, and the map application for 2 years non‑stop without any weekends, holidays, or vacations, 10–14 hours a day.
- Optimized budget costs 10 times with zero loss in productivity for the Saudi Arabia company by reimagining the overall infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary services, and relocating from the AWS cloud.
- Architected a layered maritime platform separating a Next.js PWA frontend, a Go (Huma/Fiber) API, and a PostgreSQL function layer, keeping all business logic in the database.
- Designed a JSON passthrough architecture where PostgreSQL functions return complete JSON forwarded verbatim by the Go API, eliminating intermediate unmarshalling and decoupling the frontend from schema changes.
- Designed an organization context‑switching system with client localStorage and server‑side cookie mirroring, letting users act as managed organizations while enforcing least‑privilege authorization.
- Migrated the HTTP API from Fiber to Huma v2 — 649 paths and 760 operations — reaching and holding 100% parity between the routes the server registers and the OpenAPI description it publishes.
- Designed a PostgreSQL function‑first data layer — 1,275 stored functions across 34 schemas — so every read and write goes through a function the database can grant, rather than through a table.
- Modeled the maritime domain into 348 normalized tables across 34 PostgreSQL schemas — professionals, companies, ships, jobs, reviews and the rest — with SMALLINT lookups and UUID v7 keys.
- Provisioned Azure infrastructure as code with Bicep — Container Apps, PostgreSQL Flexible Server, Front Door/WAF and networking — across the development, staging and production environments.
- Built the Next.js 16 frontend with deliberate SSR, SSG and CSR strategies, and a reusable prefetched‑server‑page factory that removes the N+1 fetch cascade from each authenticated page moved onto it.
- Hardened the application with nonce‑based CSP, HSTS, SameSite cookies, least‑privilege database roles and server‑side entitlement re‑checks.
- Set the platform's founding decisions in the weeks after the repository opened in November 2025 — the layering, database‑first data access and the zero‑warnings bar — and they still hold nine months on.
- Planned and implemented new infrastructure functionality for internal and external systems, building solutions durable enough to still run years later with minimal change.
- As one of the first hires, designed and built the entire core infrastructure and supporting processes from scratch for a green‑energy SaaS startup, laying the foundation for rapid growth.
- Built the company's own infrastructure as 19 Ansible playbooks and 34 roles across 12,065 lines of YAML, converging a live host to a declared state with every play idempotent.
- Ran the whole company on one 512 MB single‑core host — a git forge, a web server serving seven domains, Tor, two alternate‑protocol servers, backups and intrusion banning — by treating 464 MB of usable memory as the binding architectural constraint.
