Summary

Designed and developed FastAPI-based microservices for a multi-tenant SaaS platform, implementing layered architecture, repository pattern, and PostgreSQL-backed services across multiple products. Engineered secure authentication and authorization using AWS Cognito, JWT, OAuth2 Client Credentials, and custom RBAC/ABAC models, enabling fine-grained access control across distributed services. Provisioned cloud infrastructure using Terraform and AWS services including ECS Fargate, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB, S3, CloudFront, EventBridge, CloudWatch, WAF, and Secrets Manager to support secure, scalable production deployments. Designed a reusable PostgreSQL Row-Level Security (RLS) framework with custom Alembic migration generation, enforcing database-level tenant isolation across backend services. Built integrations with DocuSign, Quickbase, and internal microservices while implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Docker, AWS CodeBuild, Amazon ECR, and Terraform.

Results

  • Maintained P95 latency under 500ms by implementing a layered architecture with FastAPI and the repository pattern.
  • Reduced security boilerplate and accelerated microservice deployment by centralizing authentication through AWS Cognito with custom RBAC/ABAC.
  • Managed multi-tenancy across several active client organizations using a shared PostgreSQL database with custom Row-Level Security (RLS).
