- Develop and deploy microservices architecture using Kubernetes for managing real-time online market services.
- Implement and manage StatefulSets for Cassandra to ensure seamless database integration.
- Deploy and monitor chat services using AWS EC2/ECS for optimal performance and scalability.
- Utilize Istio or Linkerd as a service mesh for microservices management and security.
4. Monitoring & Logging:
- Implement monitoring solutions using Prometheus and Grafana to track performance metrics.
- Set up and manage logging infrastructure using the ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana).
- Ensure that the system is highly observable with real-time metrics and alerts.
5. Video Calling Infrastructure:
- Deploy and manage WebRTC signaling servers on AWS EC2/ECS.
- Utilize Elastic Load Balancing for distributing WebRTC connection requests.
- Implement auto-scaling using Kubernetes to handle varying call volumes.
- Store and manage video call metadata and logs using Cassandra, and store recorded
video calls in S3.
6. Payment Processing Infrastructure:
- Implement and integrate secure payment processing using Node.js or NestJS.
- Deploy payment services on AWS EC2/ECS, ensuring high availability with Kubernetes. - Manage transaction records and payment logs using RDS (MySQL/PostgreSQL).
- Use AWS Lambda for integrating with payment gateways and processing transactions
efficiently.
7. Cloud Infrastructure & Kubernetes:
- Deploy, manage, and scale services using Kubernetes for both video calling and payment processing.
- Implement auto-scaling, load balancing, and security best practices.
- Utilize AWS services (EC2, ECS, Lambda, S3) for deploying and maintaining robust, scalable systems.
8. Algorithm Development & Optimization:
- Develop and optimize algorithms for real-time communication and secure transactions. - Ensure low-latency and high-performance across all services.
- Collaborate with the team to solve complex problems using efficient algorithms and data
structures.
9. Collaboration & Teamwork:
- Work closely with other engineers, designers, product managers, and DevOps to deliver end-to-end solutions.
- Participate in code reviews, contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, and mentor junior developers.
