• Designed and implemented a natural language–to–SQL retrieval pipeline using LLMs and RAG, enabling internal teams to query orders, drivers, and payment data conversationally instead of writing complex SQL, reducing operational support overhead and improving data accessibility
• Built scalable TypeScript REST APIs to ensure reliable order processing, real-time notifications, and safe refund handling for a high-volume delivery platform serving 100K+ daily users and 1M+ orders, preventing inconsistent states and improving customer and driver experience
• Designed a Redis-backed dispatch system to match orders with the nearest available drivers and integrated PayPal and Stripe for secure payment processing, reducing delivery delays and ensuring seamless, duplicate-free transactions
• Eliminated SQS/DLQ processing bottlenecks by introducing concurrent Go worker pools and horizontal scaling, increasing throughput to 5K+ orders/sec and significantly reducing backlog-related delivery delays
• Automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to eliminate manual deployment steps, reduce release time by 50%, and ensure consistent, error-free deployments across environments
• Implemented JUnit test suites to achieve 80%+ code coverage, reducing production defects and increasing confidence in releases as the platform scaled
