Your most memorable project. Share it with me.

At Auctane there was a decision made to migrate monolith to microservices, this was significant undertaking for a company which was slow in technology adoption. There was people upskilling challenges, product presure to add more features to existing system and lack of resource in fullining the migration in a tight deadline.

I worked an a stratergy with the product team and leadership to reduce number of new features instead allow my team to focus on the migration part - after which we can take the backlog items. 

Once I got a greenlight, I had a solutions architect come and take 1 week course for our team to upskill, also encouraged them to take the AWS certification in parallel.

I had to scale up my team with external hires, and during pandemic it was challenge to hire any resource. Once I found the right resource, I enabled them to be productive by having a buddy dev for 2 weeks - and then learn as they go. I trusted them to be motivated and gave them the needed tools to succeed.

There was growing pains for us as team, but in the end, we successfully migrated to microservices on time and within budget. If given a role at Meta, I will bring the same phiolophy of empowring my team members to do thier job and fostering an environment of innovate.
