Talent Alpha

Talent Alpha's Human Cloud Platform 2022.5 - 2023.1

As full stack developer for Talent Alpha's pioneering human cloud platform, I led the development of a sophisticated application leveraging Javascript, Typescript, React, Node.js, and various cloud technologies.

On the frontend, I built dynamic, responsive interfaces in React to provide an engaging user experience. I incorporated Redux for scalable state management across complex features. Redux ensured optimal performance at scale for the intuitive UI which allowed streamlined profile creation and efficient browsing of candidates.

On the backend, I created RESTful APIs and microservices in Node.js and Python. This included developing the core matching algorithm in Python which analyzed user data to optimize connections. I also implemented GraphQL for efficient data fetching, allowing clients to define the structure of the data requirements and receive precise data sets.

To ensure fast performance at scale, I architected a cloud-agnostic infrastructure deploying services on AWS and Firebase. I leveraged serverless technologies like Lambda, Cloud Functions and deployed isomorphic React/Next.js apps.

In addition to core technical responsibilities, I also collaborated closely with designers and product managers. This allowed me to craft features aligned with user needs as revealed by rigorous usability testing I helped conduct.
