CAPSULE
Production-Grade Visual Vlogging Platform with Security-First Architecture
Executive Summary
Full-stack vlogging platform implementing hardened stateless authentication with HttpOnly Secure cookie-based token delivery, JWT refresh token rotation with reuse detection, Redis cache-aside performance strategy, Bull-backed asynchronous processing, strict environment validation, and production-grade observability through structured logging, Prometheus metrics, Sentry error monitoring, and correlation ID tracing.
Architecture Breakdown
Engineering Decisions
- ▹Stateless JWT authentication to enable horizontal scaling
- ▹HttpOnly cookie token delivery to eliminate XSS token exposure risk
- ▹Refresh token rotation with reuse detection to prevent token replay attacks
- ▹Cache-aside strategy to reduce database load on read-heavy endpoints
- ▹Bull queue architecture to offload expensive tasks from request lifecycle
- ▹Normalized engagement counters (likeCount, commentCount) for faster feed queries
- ▹Centralized error handling middleware for consistent API responses
- ▹Correlation ID tracing for distributed request debugging
- ▹Graceful degradation when Redis becomes unavailable
- ▹Express app/server separation to allow Jest imports without DB initialization
- ▹Async moderation pipeline to maintain low request latency
- ▹Strict environment validation preventing insecure boot configurations

Production Readiness
TOPIA — Job Aggregator Pipeline
Production-deployed full-stack job aggregation pipeline that collects, normalizes, deduplicates, and serves remote job listings using a distributed architecture with MongoDB Atlas, FastAPI, and a locally scheduled scraper running on a residential IP to bypass cloud IP bans.
Executive Summary
Building a fault-tolerant, idempotent data pipeline that separates write and read paths while handling external API inconsistencies and cloud deployment limitations.
Architecture Breakdown
Engineering Decisions
- ▹Architecture Transformations: SQLite → MongoDB Atlas (fix data loss)
- ▹Architecture Transformations: Cloud scraping → local scraping (fix IP ban)
- ▹Architecture Transformations: Monolithic flow → separated pipeline
