SaaS for a Video Game
Founder and Sole Engineer
Designed, built and operate a multi-tenant SaaS platform for online gaming communities as the sole engineer, spanning around 70 pages and more than 120 API endpoints, delivered in more than 12,000 commits.
Architected the data layer end to end: more than 200 PostgreSQL tables governed by over 550 row-level security policies and 300+ stored functions, so authorization is enforced inside the database rather than trusted to application code.
Built a distributed compute pipeline across two cloud providers that queues, schedules and meters CPU-bound jobs, with per-job machine reservation, three independent orphan guards and per-chunk cost telemetry reconciled against the provider invoice.
Engineered a realtime collaborative planning editor with live cursors, shared annotation and layout-independent coordinate anchoring, so collaborators at different zoom levels, scroll positions and filter states always see each other in the right place.
Delivered the full commercial surface alone: subscription billing with idempotent webhook processing, OAuth across five providers, a signature-verified Discord bot, and a public REST API secured by two classes of encrypted key.
Held quality at that scale with more than 1,100 test files covering over 9,700 cases, a golden-file corpus pinning four independent export formats, and 230+ internal engineering documents.
Worked on prototyping tools, design tools and AI-driven websites with a focus on user experience.
