Enhanced existing Azure Pipelines for automated deployments and templating of K8 manifest files. Connected the K8 cluster with Azure Key Vault for secret management via rbac, added handling for TLS termination with Azure Application Gateway and cert-manager, configured K8 ingress resources for request routing and custom health probes. - Made the system more resilient by improving exception handling and adding structured logging of key events to all micro services, improving monitoring and metrics. - Created unit tests to cover core functionality for all agent services, increasing overall test coverage by 30%.- Created a e2e test suite which can run as a scheduled job, verifying that core functionality of the entire system works as expected.- Helped team members overcome blockers and proactively reviewed PR’s to achieve optimal code quality for a production ready system.

Hammer Missions offers an end-to-end solution designed to increase efficiency and reduce costs in Infrastructure Surveys & Inspections by using Drones, software automation, and aerial data.- Owned the entire SaaS application lifecycle, including planning, feature development, and testing, across the full stack, guaranteeing production releases twice a month.- Collaborated cross-functionally to develop an end-to-end pipeline which processes gigabytes of data per day for creating geo-referenced 3D models and 2D maps from drone images. The pipeline is a core component of the platform, achieving a 43% surge in enterprise traction and a 30% increase in trial conversion rates.- Developed and deployed to production the first version of the platform's generative AI framework, spanning across the full stack. Enables Enterprise users to chat about, query and analyse their drone data, eliminating the need for users to manually sift through their data.- Optimised image upload API endpoints resulting in a 97.0% increase in upload speeds, transforming large dataset uploads from hours to just a few minutes.- Introduced new functionality to API endpoints overseeing data syncing between mobile apps and the backend. Achieved a 100% synchronisation rate, enabling all mobile app users to seamlessly sync their data.- Created internal libraries for 2D and 3D measurements, enabling precise measurements on 3D models and 2D maps.- Developed algorithms to accurately measure volumes in 3D meshes. Offering valuable insights for users with construction use cases that need centimetre-level precision of stockpile volumes or other assets on site.- Monitored backend infrastructure, employing AWS CloudWatch for real-time performance tracking, log management, and system health checks. Engaged in on-call rotations, ensuring continuous operational uptime for a 24/7 system availability Show less

- Developed the MVP for a cloud-based geometry exchange platform, integrating various desktop apps widely used in the construction industry. Akin to gRPC, but for transferring data between different siloed software programs, by providing a common communication protocol.- Engineered algorithms for a desktop app which automates formwork component placement and distribution. Achieved a 95% reduction in time compared to manual processes and enhanced precision, leading to a 15% reduction in… Show more - Developed the MVP for a cloud-based geometry exchange platform, integrating various desktop apps widely used in the construction industry.
