At ticketea I did mainly backend and APIs development (Python 2/3, Django), including building a high-load checkout service backend. Migrated the main website to Python 3, component rewrites, legacy systems containerization and Continuous Integration workflows setup, partial platform migration from AWS (ECS & ECR, SQS, Kinesis) to Google Cloud AppEngine (Docker, Cloud tasks, Pub/Sub). In March 2018 ticketea was acquired by Eventbrite. Since then, I've worked in the new checkout application (Python, ReactJS), and now I'm focused on evolving the services responsible for purchase flows. Architecture guild member. Outreach.

Led cross-functional team in charge of building customer-facing services: Web application, public API, mailing and notifications service, user accounts service and Facebook video distribution.
