Architecting Cloud-Native Solutions.
I am Abolfazl Bazghandi, a Senior Full Stack Developer with a Master's in Software Engineering and over a decade of experience. My journey evolved from deep Android and Java development into mastering modern web ecosystems. Today, I specialize in building robust platforms using Next.js, NestJS, and AWS. I focus on pragmatic architecture—deploying exactly what the solution demands, whether that means orchestrating complex Kubernetes clusters or streamlining agile deployments via AWS App Runner.

A detailed overview of my professional career, focusing on scalable architecture, cloud solutions, and full-stack development.
Senior Full Stack Developer
Key Responsibilities
- Architected the end-to-end system using React and NestJS, ensuring high scalability and clean domain-driven design.
- Established a CI/CD pipeline from scratch using GitHub Actions to push Docker images to AWS ECR, and implemented GitOps workflows via ArgoCD for AWS EKS.
- Orchestrated Kubernetes workloads on AWS EKS to manage high-traffic video/audio sessions, optimizing resource allocation and system reliability.
- Developed sophisticated real-time conferencing features using WebRTC, including custom video backgrounds and subscription-based session management.
- Engineered an AI meeting intelligence pipeline utilizing AWS Transcribe for speaker-diarized audio transcription and AWS Bedrock to generate automated, context-aware meeting summaries.
Application Developer
Key Responsibilities
- Built secure data connections between internal legacy systems and modern external vendor platforms.
- Modernized legacy XML/SOAP workflows into RESTful microservices, significantly increasing system reliability and maintainability.
- Optimized complex SQL queries for large datasets, reducing report generation time by 60%.
- Mentored junior developers in React best practices, modern state management, and clean code architecture.
Software Developer
Key Responsibilities
- Developed enterprise-grade backend systems for financial services, successfully handling thousands of concurrent transactions.
- Enforced strict security compliance using OAuth2 and JWT, safely managing complex, sensitive financial data structures.
- Designed and implemented robust, highly-optimized database schemas for high-traffic microservices.
- Collaborated tightly with AI teams to seamlessly integrate machine learning models directly into consumer-facing web applications.
Embedded Engineer
Key Responsibilities
- Engineered control systems for advanced robotics using ARM STM32 and AVR Atmel microcontrollers, integrating diverse sensor arrays via I2C, SPI, and UART protocols.
- Designed and synthesized custom digital logic circuits on FPGAs using VHDL for high-speed hardware acceleration and signal processing.
- Managed the complete hardware lifecycle by designing custom Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), from initial schematic capture to fabrication, component soldering, and debugging.
- Developed robust, low-level firmware in C/C++ to establish seamless hardware-software interfaces for experimental research modules.
Technical Ecosystem
My preferred stack for building scalable applications, separated by domain expertise.
Frontend Engineering
Building responsive, accessible, and performant user interfaces.
Backend Architecture
Designing robust APIs, microservices, and secure logic layers.
Database Systems
Optimized data storage solutions using SQL, NoSQL, and Caching.
DevOps & Automation
Automated GitOps pipelines, cross-repo security, and EKS deployments.
Cloud Infrastructure
Scalable cloud-native solutions powered by AWS services.
Architecture First
I don't just write code; I design systems. Focusing on long-term scalability.
AI-Augmented Architecture
Leveraging state-of-the-art AI to build intelligent cloud-native systems, enforce rigorous security postures, and multiply development velocity.
Enterprise AI Architecture
Architecting context-aware systems by integrating AWS Bedrock for secure, private foundation models and OpenAI APIs for advanced generative reasoning. I focus on deploying production-ready AI that scales gracefully without compromising data privacy.
Serverless AI Workflows
Orchestrating event-driven, managed workflows using Firebase AI extensions. By offloading heavy lifting to serverless infrastructure, I instantly deploy features like semantic search and automated data pipelines with zero operational overhead.
Engineering Velocity
Treating AI as a sheer force multiplier for development speed. I leverage advanced LLMs to rapidly prototype boilerplate, generate aggressive edge-case tests, and conduct proactive security vulnerability audits to drastically reduce technical debt.
Featured Projects
A selection of platforms I have architected, showcasing scalable backends, real-time automation, and seamless user experiences.
Ruume
Smart Video & Monetization Platform
A comprehensive interactive platform combining smart video and live meetings. I engineered scalable infrastructure for seamless conferencing and implemented core business features, including automated calendar synchronization and a robust file monetization system powered by Stripe.
NovaNote
AI-Powered Secure Journal
A production-grade journaling platform featuring an optimized media pipeline and instant grammar enhancement via Google Gemini AI. Architected with Next.js App Router and a serverless backend, prioritizing enterprise-level security through Cloudflare Turnstile and strict quota management.
Bale Unread Monitor
Zero-Latency Chrome Extension
A privacy-first productivity tool bridging web.bale.ai and Telegram. I engineered a zero-tracking Chrome extension using the MutationObserver API to detect unread badges in real-time without expensive DOM polling. It securely forwards clean, debounced notifications directly to the Telegram API, operating entirely client-side without intermediary servers.
Poll10
Fast 0-10 Rating Polls
A lightning-fast, highly scalable polling platform designed for instant decision-making. It enables users to create and share 0-10 rating polls in under 15 seconds without any tedious signup or tracking. Built with a strict privacy-first mindset, ensuring secure data handling and frictionless user engagement.
