Past Work
Sports Platform Performance Rescue
A production performance investigation that turned 30-40 second waits into near-instant responses by fixing both application-level issues and a hidden infrastructure bottleneck.
Symptoms
Some pages on the platform took 30-40 seconds to load, which made day-to-day usage painful for analysts and teams depending on the system.
Investigation
I worked through the stack from application behavior down to infrastructure. Several optimizations improved things quickly, but the deeper bottleneck turned out to be a decade-old database setup stuck on a single CPU core.
- -Query and application analysis
- -Infrastructure review
- -Root-cause diagnosis beyond surface-level fixes
Impact
Fixing the bottleneck and pairing it with the application work brought the platform back to near-instant responsiveness for most flows.

The strongest fit is work where reliability, scale, or technical risk matters enough that proof and judgment carry more weight than a generic dev retainer.
