Event Streaming Platform

Live & on-demand streaming with commerce

Overview

I helped transition a data-hosted on-premises streaming product to a cloud-based solution. Live and on-demand video run through AWS MediaLive into MediaPackage/CloudFront for playback, with Nest.js APIs and Remix SSR for the product surface. Ticket sales and merchandise are handled through Shopify (Storefront API and checkout flows).
