- Overhauled checkout grouping done at zulily checkout, replacing it with a simplified algorithm, paving way to newer shipping business rules and reducing operational issues of the team multi-fold.- Designed a sliding window based API rate limiter for internal platform APIs improving accuracy of API rate limiting - the same idea was widely adopted for multiple business use-cases later on.- Led a team of 4 engineers for organization-wide hackathon to build a compelling product for ranked assortment of essential products during pandemic. The team won the hackathon and the product was made live on zulily apps and website.
