Technical context

The platform work connected product development and infrastructure under strong delivery pressure. My contribution focused on the Spring Boot backend, database-backed features with PostgreSQL/Flyway, automated AWS infrastructure with Terraform and repeatable GitLab CI/CD processes. Early releases, sprint review feedback and the connection between backend implementation, operations and platform stability shaped the work.
