High-volume e-commerce platform — US retail brand
Architected a custom platform surviving 100k+ concurrent Black Friday users. Multi-currency checkout across 5 countries with 99.98% uptime SLA delivered.
The Challenge
A US retail brand was losing revenue during peak traffic events — their existing Shopify-based storefront buckled under Black Friday load, dropping transactions and frustrating customers across 5 international markets.
The Approach
Architected a headless commerce solution with React on the frontend and Node.js APIs backed by Redis caching layers. Implemented multi-currency checkout, edge-cached product pages, and load-tested the system to 150k concurrent users before launch. Built real-time monitoring dashboards to catch bottlenecks proactively.
The Outcome
The platform handled 100k+ concurrent users on Black Friday with 99.98% uptime. Multi-currency checkout went live across 5 countries simultaneously. Page load times dropped below 1.5 seconds globally, contributing to a measurable increase in conversion rate.
