Contributed to HabitRPG/habitica by developing a custom analytics solution that tracks user registration and subscription events, centralizing telemetry to support data-driven product decisions. This work involved designing and implementing end-to-end event tracking using JavaScript, Node.js, and MongoDB, laying the foundation for improved lifecycle analytics and revenue optimization. Additionally, addressed a critical reliability issue by fixing the initialization of the Redis-backed rate limiter and aligning server status management, which restored accurate traffic control and enhanced system stability during peak loads. The contributions focused on backend development, operational reliability, and robust data collection to improve both user experience and business insight.
