Over five months, contributed to the bluesky/tiled repository by building real-time data streaming, cache management, and enterprise authentication features. Developed a WebSocket endpoint with Redis-backed caching for low-latency streaming, then abstracted streaming cache logic to improve modularity and testability. Introduced an in-memory TTLCacheDatastore with Pub/Sub for efficient data delivery and enhanced reliability through async programming and robust error handling. Integrated Azure Entra authentication, implementing both token-based and OIDC flows to support secure, scalable user access. Work was delivered using Python, FastAPI, and Docker, with a strong emphasis on testing, configuration, and maintainable backend architecture throughout each feature.
