We help SaaS (Software as a service) companies in shaping up their product & help them scale their development.

The role involved building scalable and robust solutions which can sustain Crowdfire's humongous growing user base (12+ million users as of now) using latest tools and technologies. 

In the first few months, I and my team built Crowdfire's whole front-end application from ground zero including designing the user interface. This new front-end application is now used by millions of users every month. 

Later when front-end reached a stable stage, I moved to back-end team to help them in solving scaling challenges. After some brainstorming with the team, we decided to migrate to micro service-oriented architecture. We built a robust micro-service and deployed it to AWS Elastic Beanstalk
