Etsy Project

I joined Etsy as a SWE intern under the Photos team during Fall 2023. During my time at Etsy, I re-architected Etsy’s entire bespoke image upload pipeline to process 10+ image file formats using containerized architecture to handle variations in load and maximize hardware efficiency, saving Etsy $X00000 in yearly spend. Worked heavily with Golang, gRPC, Protobuf, Grafana, Docker, and PHP.

I also implemented 5+ image processing functions (i.e. color analysis, cropping/scaling, thumbnail extraction) used by Etsy.com by leveraging a gRPC-based API for multiplexing and streaming requests, reducing latency by 46%.
