    • Student Trainee - Java Backend Developer ( Certification Check Flattener for SWF )
      Feb 2023 - Jul 2023 · 6 mos

      Certification Check Flattener for SWF: Collaborated with the SWF team, which handles tickets raised from incorrect vehicle data outside regulations. The existing DaBo (Dashboard) process had cost constraints (e.g., Xtelo fetching files from S3 for flattening on a time-based schedule, making today’s data available only the next day). Proposed and contributed to a solution that reduced costs, enabled near real-time data availability, and simplified workflows for the SWF team. Implemented Phase 1 of Certification Check Result flattening, which revealed architectural gaps in the certification workflow. Conducted detailed analysis and proposed a refactoring approach, presenting recommendations to architects and leads for adoption. Worked on setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines to automate application deployment across environments up to production.
