WORK EXPERIENCE
Valuelabs Solutions, Hyderabad, India Jul 2024 - Apr 2025 Role Software Engineer
Client Shutterfly
Responsibility:
Designed and developed REST APIs for migrating product types, products, and product codes across multiple categories (Mugs, Books, Cards, Calendars), deploying them in Docker containers for consistent environments across development and production.
Implemented Kafka-based data migration, where product data was produced in the legacy version and consumed in the modern microservice, event-driven version in a structured JSON message format, leveraging AWS services for scalable and reliable message processing.
Deployed migration services and Kafka consumers on EC2 for scalability, stored processed product files/images in S3 for durability and retrieval, and used Lambda for event-driven transformations on new S3 files before pushing them to consumer services.
Used MongoDB to store and manage hierarchical product data, optimizing queries for efficient retrieval and migration within AWS-hosted environments.
Utilized Swagger for API documentation and testing, improving the ease of integration and validation for developers and testers across containerized microservices.
Integrated Splunk for monitoring API logs and Kafka message processing, enabling real- time issue tracking and troubleshooting.
Ensured data integrity and consistency by implementing robust validation and error- handling mechanisms.
