Ciprian Gheorghite

• Integrated third-party services into high-traffic storefronts — payment gateways, OMS platforms, SEO tracking — including the error handling and reconciliation that keeps them reliable in production.
• Profiled and optimised back-end code and site performance, and handled bug fixing and regression assessment on custom implementations after release.
• First-line on-call responder for production incidents across multiple client projects, diagnosing and fixing live failures under time pressure.
• Mentor junior developers joining the company — onboarding, code review, and regular feedback.
• Designed and maintained complex, multi-layered business logic and data models for high-traffic eCommerce brands across several industries.
• Led cartridge construction projects, keeping implementations modular and consistent with platform best practice.
• Worked with front-end teams and directly with clients in Agile/Scrum delivery.

• Designed a conversational agent with a tool registry: the model calls real tools — web search, Discord administration, media playback, a game API — rather than only replying.
• Specified a tiered permission model for tool calls (read-only, state-changing, destructive), opt-in per tier and written to an audit log, so an agent cannot quietly take an action nobody sanctioned.
• Multi-provider by design: a hosted model with automatic fallback when quota runs out, and a local model over the network for summarisation work that does not need a frontier model.
• Built a news aggregator that filters by meaning rather than keywords using local embeddings, routes matches to per-topic channels, and guarantees each item is delivered once.
• Self-hosted the supporting services — search, translation, Postgres, reverse proxy — under Docker Compose, so the whole system runs without external API keys.

• Designed and run a production Next.js application on Postgres — several separate authentication systems, a Markdown blog, an admin area, and a private project workspace.
• Designed the data model with Prisma; own deployment, migrations and incident response.

• Designed an idle/RPG game running inside the platform above: Discord sign-in, gameplay, inventory, shop and crafting, plus a public leaderboard and character profiles.
• Specified the split between the web app and a separate game backend reached over a private tunnel, and the offline state the UI falls back to rather than failing when that backend is down.
• Designed an admin panel for enabling skills and activities and tuning game values live, without a deploy.
