React/Gatsby Node.js Go Netlify Serverless Framework Slack API

At X-Team, I worked across multiple projects revamping the company website to building internal HR tools and improving the radio platform. I also created CLI tools that automated daily workflows, saving teams hours of manual work.

Key Contributions

Revamped Company Website

  • Problem: The company website had slow load times, poor SEO performance, and a dated user interface
  • Action: Rebuilt the website from the ground up using React/Gatsby and hosted it on Netlify with optimized performance and modern design
  • Result: Improved page load speeds by 50%, boosted SEO rankings by 40%, and increased user engagement by 20%

Developed Internal HR Application

  • Problem: The company had two separate HR applications that were difficult to maintain and fragmented user workflows
  • Action: Merged both systems into a unified platform using React/Node.js with Strapi as the CMS backend
  • Result: Reduced administrative work by 30% and significantly improved user satisfaction across the organization

Created Go CLI Tool for Daily Activity Logging

  • Problem: Employees had to manually track daily activities, which was time-consuming and prone to errors
  • Action: Built a Go CLI tool that connected to a Lambda function, allowing users to create daily logs directly from the terminal
  • Result: Saved each employee 15 minutes daily on administrative tasks, saving the company hundreds of hours annually

Diagnosed and Resolved Critical Performance Issues

  • Problem: The radio platform (radio.x-team.com) was experiencing slow page loads and frequent stability issues
  • Action: Diagnosed the root cause through comprehensive code refactoring, improving both backend and frontend performance
  • Result: Reduced page load time by 60% and significantly improved overall platform stability

Integrated Slack API for Activity Logging

  • Problem: Activity logs needed to be shared with the team for visibility and coordination
  • Action: Integrated the logging system with the Slack API using Serverless Framework, automatically generating Slack messages from daily logs
  • Result: Improved team transparency and reduced manual reporting overhead

Impact Summary

  • 50% faster page load speeds
  • 30% reduction in administrative work
  • 15 minutes saved daily
  • 60% reduction in page load time on radio platform
