Grew to a real audience. 300+ users and 70 listings, without a marketing budget behind it.
Search that keeps up. Algolia indexed against Firestore, synced live so results never lag behind the data.
Scales on its own. Deployed to a managed instance group of Compute Engine VMs that autoscales horizontally.
Led a team of four. Owned the roadmap, split the work, and made the system design calls.
