{{% resume/work-experience name="Red Hat" {{% resume/section "Summary" %}}
title="Cloud/Software Engineer Intern" languages="Kubernetes, GoLang, Jenkins" date="May 2020 — Aug 2021" %}} **Customer-focused call centre** professional with **Tier 1/2 support**
experience, **de-escalation**, and **clear communication**. Improves
**first-response**, reduces **escalations**, and shortens **resolution times**
across **high-volume phone/chat/email** queues. Strong **documentation habits**
and **plain-language** explanations for non-technical users.
{{% /resume/section %}}
- **Reduced deployment time by 66%** by implementing a {{% resume/section "Work Experience" %}}
[solution](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-operator/commit/175a6356c5474f2360ccb8ae835e0b9b2d653cf1) for deploying locally-compiled binaries onto
Kubernetes/OpenShift via command-line, **cutting average
deployment times from 45 minutes to 15 minutes**.
(**Kubernetes/GoLang** used for this and three below).
- **Eliminated 80% of manual configuration errors** by enabling
the Kubernetes operator to automatically fetch data from
deployed services and update configurations, **deprecating
legacy startup scripts and reducing overall startup time
by 40%**.
- **Improved application stability** by introducing startup
probes for legacy applications with longer boot times,
**resulting in a 50% reduction in startup-related failures
and downtime during production launches**.
- **Enhanced system reliability** by refactoring probes to
[assign default values](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-operator/commit/af4977af228ec8648be28779259d4552246b656f) dynamically based on deployed YAML
files and fixing reconciliation issues, **increasing probe accuracy by 30%** and preventing misconfigurations.
- **Increased CI pipeline efficiency** by rewriting the
**Jenkins (Groovy)** [nightly pipeline](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-pipelines/commit/4c83f1aecdea2c1ba2796b79839a90d4083dce88) to run in a GitHub PR
environment, allowing for automated testing of all
team-submitted PRs prior to merging, **reducing manual
intervention by 60%**.
- **Increased project reproducibility** by taking initiative to
write a [reusable GitHub parameters file](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-pipelines/commit/4c83f1aecdea2c1ba2796b79839a90d4083dce88#diff-7d2c018dafbccec859077d19bf1ade53ec9c7649f235528ce89f5632b109f7e6) for the pipeline,
**enabling 100% reusability** and ensuring consistent pipeline
setups across different environments.

marketplace about their in-house statistical rarity
ranking
- created Prisma schema for PostgreSQL for database to store NFT data
- Node.js backend with API endpoints to return NFT's based
on max rank/price along with rarest traits
- lowest prices for rarity percentile to see if good deal
- fetch all listings from leading marketplace (Magic Eden) to be
able to identify which rare NFT's are on sale and be able
to filter based on max price/filter
- store previous sales data to check whether a buy at rarity
percentile is a good deal
- React FE to dynamically load NFT's based on rarity
rank/price filter with ability to hide seen ones
