Experience

Midnight Society

Game Developer, Web3 April 2022 - March 2025 (https://midnightsociety.com) Collaborated with Boom x VSM Studio on a high-profile project led by Dr. Disrespect, launching MidnightSociety.com on March 15, 2022 to support applications for 10,000 Founders' Pass NFTs. The campaign attracted nearly 400,000 applicants within one week, with an equal number of free "Claws" NFTs minted automatically to eligible users — showcasing a seamless large-scale Web3 onboarding experience.

Architected a modern, scalable platform with a Next.js frontend decoupled from a Hasura-based backend, enabling rapid feature development and clean separation of concerns. Established isolated environments (local, staging, production) supported by GitHub-based automated CI/CD pipelines for streamlined deployment and testing. Leveraged Hasura to generate CRUD GraphQL APIs, allowing engineers to focus on business logic while accelerating development velocity. Designed a robust event-driven serverless architecture, with PostgreSQL change events triggering modular backend functions, minimizing operational overhead and improving scalability.

Applied Hasura’s RBAC and custom event handlers to encapsulate security rules cleanly and maintain flexible access control. This serverless-first approach achieved high availability (quad-9 uptime), cost efficiency, and seamless scaling, outperforming traditional Kubernetes-based microservices in handling bursty traffic patterns. Over 3 years, this architecture evolved to support critical game platform features: authentication, fiat/crypto payments, player entitlements, season pass bundling, and internal admin tools for moderation and operations.
