nodes, allowing field operators to keep their track data synced across a fleet of 10 ships.

Migrated and upgraded existing front end to utilize React/Redux, decoupling existing framework from the

backend and saving developers hours per page on development.

Upgraded development tools to cache key build files between runs, resulting in 60% faster compile times.

Improved Kafka data transfer reliability to 100%, granting customers a view of tens of thousands of tracks.

Created REST services to query and modify existing track data and save the results in Postgres.

Developed and automated a system to facilitate real-time track synchronization across multiple servers.
