Highlighted Projects

Gunn MX Motocross Store
Private client project, solo full-stack ownership
Private e-commerce platform built for a motocross parts business that previously handled most orders in person or by phone. The main goal was to move key sales and inventory flows online without adding extra day-to-day workload for the owner.
- Customer flow: Vehicle-based filtering to reduce wrong-part orders and support self-service purchases
- Owner workflow: Internal dashboard for stock updates, order handling, and warehouse visibility
- System design: Go REST API with JWT auth, service layer for orders/inventory, relational schema design
- Operations: Docker containerization, CI/CD pipeline, AWS deployment

Social Network
Team project (2 developers), kood/Jõhvi curriculum
Full-featured social platform with privacy-aware post feeds, multi-level group permissions, real-time messaging, and WebSocket communication. Built around access control, feed filtering, and event distribution.
- Core services: Go stdlib HTTP server, privacy/permission logic, feed algorithms, WebSocket multiplexing
- Real-time systems: gorilla/websocket for notifications and live chat with connection management
- Database: SQLite schema design for posts, follows, groups, permissions; golang-migrate for versioning
- Infrastructure: Docker Compose multi-service setup, containerized deployment pipeline
- Frontend: React 18 integration with backend APIs (secondary responsibility)

Crud Master / Containerized API
Infrastructure-focused systems project, kood/Jõhvi curriculum
Built and evolved a 3-service application (gateway, inventory, billing) to improve reliability and deployment consistency. Started with VM-based provisioning and process management, then moved to container-first orchestration with Docker Compose.
- Service architecture: API gateway, PostgreSQL-backed inventory/billing services, RabbitMQ messaging
- Operations: Dockerfiles, Compose networking, persistent volumes, startup dependencies, restart policies
- Automation: setup scripts, environment templating, repeatable local deployment workflow
- Validation: OpenAPI docs and Postman collections for end-to-end API testing
