Battle Log
Patient-care CMS through the utilization ceiling · MongoDB ReplicaSet → Atlas Sharded Cluster
Solo migration of a vendor-locked clinic CMS off a saturated single ReplicaSet onto a horizontally scalable Sharded Cluster. Profiled the live workload, picked the shard key off real query shapes, fixed a misconfigured Azure network path along the way, rehearsed the cutover twice — patient services never went offline.
Booking path under the second barrier · sub-1s P99 across 300+ partner integrations
Profilers, execution plans, and traces on a high-traffic booking flow. Query shapes rewritten, N+1s eliminated, caches placed where the data actually allowed it — P99 brought under one second without dropping a single integration.
PingOps shipped to the App Store · uptime monitoring with cloud coverage
Forged in-house and shipped solo: an iOS uptime monitor with public status pages and cloud-side checks. Design, backend, client, and store release — one operator, end to end.
Enterprise architecture for a 2M+ member platform
Integration architecture, cloud stack selection, and an ADR library that outlived team rotations. Plus the training programme that levelled up every application engineer in the org.
Bottleneckers live · visual bottleneck simulation for distributed systems
Drag-and-drop service topologies, client-side load simulation, utilization heatmaps, and critical-path analysis — systems intuition, playable in the browser.
Pro StarCraft player & team captain · Mineski
Map awareness, build orders, APM under pressure, and post-game analysis as a discipline. The strategic instincts behind every system Arkynate ships were forged here first.

What happens next
