# Zhifei Li > Software Engineer at Authright | Graduate Student at Northeastern University Location: Boston, Massachusetts, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/zhifei Software Engineer with experience building scalable web platforms and decentralized systems. At AuthRight, I led the development of a modern image and video platform using React, TypeScript, and Python, and architected a decentralized platform enabling seamless integration between web applications and blockchain infrastructure. Previously at China Eastern Airlines, I helped build a high-traffic airline service platform serving over 1M users. I developed REST APIs with Java and Spring Boot, optimized database performance with MySQL and MyBatis, and collaborated with Alibaba and Tencent on real-time messaging systems. Earlier, as an intern at SigScalr, I contributed to a distributed log management system in Go, designed for high-throughput data processing. I focus on building reliable, scalable systems with modern frameworks and cloud infrastructure. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ Authright Inc Jan 2025 – Present | Boston, Massachusetts, United States At AuthRight, I worked as a Software Engineer focused on building and scaling modern web platforms. I led the development of a production-grade image and video platform using React, TypeScript, and Python, ensuring performance, reliability, and maintainability. I also designed and implemented a decentralized platform with Next.js to enable seamless integration between web applications and blockchain infrastructure. In addition, I delivered enterprise Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions using ForgeRock and Ping Identity, earning the PingAM certification. My work included optimizing Linux-based environments on Google Cloud Platform, improving system stability, security, and operational efficiency for enterprise clients. ### Software Engineer @ Nesa Jan 2025 – Jan 2025 | Boston, Massachusetts, United States At Nesa, I worked as a Software Engineer building a decentralized platform that enables seamless interaction between web applications and blockchain networks. I designed and implemented the frontend using Next.js and TypeScript, focusing on usability, performance, and reliability. I was responsible for integrating smart contract interactions, handling wallet connections, transaction flows, and on-chain data synchronization. I also built supporting backend services to manage request orchestration, event listening, and data persistence. My work emphasized secure data handling, scalable architecture, and smooth developer and user experience across decentralized systems. ### Software Engineer @ SigScalr Jan 2023 – Jan 2024 | Boston, Massachusetts, United States Engaged in full-stack development with a focus on creating dynamic and responsive web interfaces. Used jQuery to design and implement feature-rich pages, such as a log search page, enabling users to query and download logs using Splunk QL, SQL, and LogQL. Implemented AJAX to handle real-time data retrieval and ensure seamless interaction between the front end and back-end services. Contributed to back-end development using Go, working on log query functionalities and integrating with pre-existing APIs to streamline communication between the application and AWS-based data storage. Enhanced system performance by optimizing front-end and back-end processes, ensuring efficient data management and user-friendly experiences. Conducted code reviews and collaborated with the testing team to maintain quality standards. Gained hands-on experience with scalable data handling and cloud-based systems, further strengthening expertise in end-to-end web application development.

Developed a full-stack airline service platform using Java and Vue.js, leveraging Maven and SpringBoot to implement dozens of REST APIs that enable seamless interaction with users. This platform served more than 1,000K passengers, allowing them to check in, select seats, and check boarding passes online. Optimized SQL scripts to accelerate bulk data retrieval, reducing latency and improving web application loading time on SQL Server. Collaborated with Alibaba and Tencent to develop a Java-based message push project, which has become a primary channel for users to obtain real-time flight dynamics. Designed and developed a Java and HTML/JavaScript-based in-company website that enables over 30K employees to conduct in-company examinations, competitions, and rankings. Analyzed flights and passenger data in MongoDB and SQL to derive insights into performance and customer behavior, improving operational efficiency and passenger satisfaction. Provided essential data support for downstream operations via RabbitMQ, enabling seamless data exchange and enhancing cross-functional collaboration. Utilized Redis for asynchronous tasks, improving system efficiency and enabling real-time processing of high-volume data. ### Software Engineer @ Graduation Project (Shaanxi Normal University) Jan 2017 – Jan 2018 | Xi'an, Shaanxi, China The pictures sent back by satellite usually have many spots, which will reduce the quality of the images and make researchers unable to get effective processing results in image segmentation and identification in the next stage. Therefore, I have developed a system. • Individually designed a platform that can process SAR images with speckles, which was developed with MATLAB. • Researchers can upload one or more images on the system. I will reduce noise in the images through four algorithms: Lee filter, Kuan filter, Shearlet filter and Gamma Map. • Researchers can compare the results to select the most appropriate method and parameters and improve the next image processing effect. ### Software Engineer @ Digital China Jan 2017 – Jan 2017 | China Engineered a banking system using Java and Oracle with a SpringMVC architectural pattern, ensuring efficient and scalable performance. Implemented core banking features such as checking and savings account balance, credit card repayment, money transfers, and bank statement inquiries, optimizing the customer experience ## Education ### Master of Science - MS in Software Engineering Systems Northeastern University ### Bachelor of Science - BS in Computer Science and Technology Shaanxi Normal University ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/zhifei-li-288108250 --- Source: https://flows.cv/zhifei JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/zhifei/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-28
