   Majorly contributed to a redesign project for new products which increased the number of products available to customers on the day of release by 42% and grew the number of products with a delivery estimate less than 6 days from 6% to 17%- Collaborated with stakeholders across multiple geographies to gather requirements for 10+ countries- Designed and implemented the solution using Java that updated the pre-order logic for 10MM+ products. Wrote tests with JUnit and Mockito to increase code coverage above 90%- Updated the service web portal using ReactJS and developed a custom data pipeline with SQL and Scala to process updates for 1MM+ products daily- Leveraged CI/CD pipelines to deploy the new logic- Improved deployment speed of new machine learning models by implementing a new data pipeline that allowed multiple ML models to be tested simultaneously, identifying the model with best performance in half the time- Created SQL and Python scripts for model pre-processing that stored data in S3. Leveraged AWS Step Functions, Sagemaker, and Kinesis to schedule and run the data pipeline that published predictions- Updated Lambda logic (Java) to process and store over 20MM predictions in DynamoDB and integrated the service with an A/B testing client for an improved release mechanism- Improved out of stock availability for over 1MM products by implementing a new service logic in Java that processes SQS updates from an upstream service and updates the product availability on the Amazon website- Decreased the number of delayed orders from 28K/month in Europe by implementing permission-based overrides for a web service by creating a new LDAP group, custom permissions, and updating the portal using ReactJS to reduce incorrect product availability on the Amazon website- Improved operational excellence by updating multiple pipelines to be fully CI/CD and reducing 90% of security risks by developing a mechanism to update services.
