🚀 Just completed a Kubernetes Logging project using the ELK Stack!
Built and verified a centralized logging pipeline using:
🔹 Kubernetes & Minikube
🔹 Helm
🔹 Filebeat
🔹 Elasticsearch
🔹 Kibana
Kubernetes logs are now collected by Filebeat, stored in Elasticsearch, and visualized through Kibana Discover.
This project strengthened my hands-on skills in Kubernetes logging, Helm deployments, troubleshooting, and observability.

The backend for a UK marketplace that connects construction businesses with tradespeople.
I built the auth layer with admin 2FA, social and phone sign-in and rate limiting, and in a security review I closed an account-takeover path and an MFA bypass. On top of that: profiles with skills, accreditations and auto-geocoding, job posting and applications, a discovery search that ranks tradespeople by availability, distance, rating and budget, and Stripe subscriptions with webhooks.
I also set up the CI pipeline in GitHub Actions and the one-command deploy to an Ubuntu server with health checks.
Stack: NestJS, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Stripe, Firebase, Docker, GitHub Actions.
A vehicle protection platform where four kinds of users share one system: car owners, installers, car dealerships and a super admin. I was the main backend developer on a team of four, with 395 commits.
I built the REST API across about 30 database models: role-based access so each role reaches only its own data, the request and bidding workflow between dealers and installers with approvals, cancellations, penalties and ratings, and NFC-based vehicle scan sessions with multi-angle photo upload and image quality checks.
It also includes real-time chat with Socket.IO, push notifications, S3 uploads, PDF reports, warranty tracking and full Swagger documentation.
Stack: Node.js, Express, Prisma, MySQL, Socket.IO, AWS S3, Firebase.
Built a self-hosted observability platform for error tracking, performance monitoring, sessions, releases, and alerts.
