As a backend software engineer, I played a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining scalable backend systems to support critical business operations. My work focused on building efficient, asynchronous processes, integrating third-party services, and enhancing system performance. I collaborated closely with internal stakeholders, including the fraud operations and data engineering teams, to deliver impactful solutions.

key responsibilities:

• Asynchronous Processing: Designed and implemented asynchronous workflows to optimize large-scale blockchain queries, significantly improving system performance and reducing execution times.
• Blockchain Data Integration: Built systems to query blockchain data, process wallet information, and extract key insights for fraud analysis and operational efficiency.
• Backend Development: Developed and maintained server-side logic, APIs, and microservices to support critical business features for fraud detection and reporting.
• Data Transformation & Reporting: Created robust data pipelines to transform and report user activity data for enhanced visibility into attack start and end tracking.
• System Monitoring & Error Handling: Improved error-handling logic to ensure smooth execution of processes and minimize failure points, even in cases of network outages or API rate limits.
• Collaboration & Communication: Worked closely with the fraud operations and data engineering teams to ensure solutions aligned with business needs and technical goals.
• Testing & Quality Assurance: Wrote unit tests and integration tests to ensure system reliability and maintainability.
• Technology Stack: Utilized Python (asyncio, aiohttp, pandas) and TypeScript (Node.js) in a modern software development environment with tools like PyCharm, VS Code, Git, and AWS services.
