Challenges

As usual each project has some challenging points, In Tabootv I have to deal with multiple team design team, mobile team and QA team to issue the seamless deliver of the project, Managing large file uploads to AWS S3 introduced complexities in file chunking and integration. It has multiple payment method and gatways which becomes challenging to manage users subscriptions.

Initiatives

I led our team in adopting agile methodologies, which enhanced our collaboration and adaptability. Implementing a continuous delivery pipeline allowed us to automate testing and deployment, resulting in faster, more reliable releases without compromising quality.
