While developing FitAction, I focused on building a high-performance and scalable backend. Using Node.js, Express.js, and NestJS, I optimized API performance, reducing latency by 35% through query optimization and Redis caching.
Secure Authentication & Data Protection
Security was a top priority.
- Implemented JWT-based authentication with OAuth 2.0 and bcrypt, ensuring secure user sessions.
- Strengthened the system’s security posture, significantly reducing unauthorized access incidents.
Seamless Apple HealthKit Integration
To enhance user experience, I integrated Apple HealthKit for real-time synchronization of fitness metrics.
- Enabled personalized health insights, leading to a 40% increase in user engagement.
- Improved overall app experience by ensuring seamless data syncing.
Database Optimization for Performance Gains
Optimizing the database was crucial for performance improvements.
- Optimized MongoDB queries and incorporated Memcached.
- Reduced database response times by 50%, ensuring a more responsive system even under heavy loads.
Scalable Architecture & Real-Time Data Processing
I designed and developed the backend for FitAction, a comprehensive health and fitness platform.
- Integrated 12+ fitness modules (Yoga, HIIT, Nutrition, etc.) into a unified RESTful API.
- Developed a real-time calorie tracking system using MongoDB, designed to handle 1M+ daily transactions.
- Leveraged AWS auto-scaling for improved system reliability and scalability.
