01 / Overview

What this project is.

Worked as a Full Stack Developer at Naked Media, gaining deep insight into Model View Control (MVC) architecture, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), design patterns, and UML methodologies. Developed modern web applications using React, React Native, Gatsby.js, and Node.js with RESTful web services. Worked under a senior software architect to prototype a Kafka-based message queuing system using Spring framework. Participated in Agile/Scrum methodology tracked in Rally, managed multiple database systems (MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB), and created comprehensive UML-compliant designs including data flow diagrams, class diagrams, sequence diagrams, and technical documentation for development teams.
