NFCtron

When joining NFCtron, the developer team consisted of just 3 people (including me). So we had to do everything ourselves. This included

  • Managing the K8S cluster
  • DevOps
  • Evaluation of business impact for new features

My core focus was on a platform for event organizers called NFCtron Plus. The main goal was to give real-time data access to all the merchants and event organizers. Secondary goal was to drastically simplify the setup of new events, product catalog, and basically all the setting of an event. Previously, this has to be done manually by support people or the developers.

The other part of my journey at NFCtron was the development of a customer-facing application, that would allow them to buy tickets and manage their credit-deposits. This included multiple MVPs and a lot of user testing.

All this while developing and completely rewriting the internal payment systems, that were running on Node.js with Flutter mobile application. This included many challenges from encryption and data obfuscation, to real-time server processing and efficient storage. The journey included a long migration from a non-relational database to a relational, that required gradual rewrite of a lot of parts of the application.
