Gábor Pichner

As a Site Reliability Engineer, I lead reliability and scalability efforts for a video-based identification platform. My key responsibilities include resolving critical production issues, collaborating with partners and operations, and spearheading system stability, monitoring, and debugging initiatives to ensure secure and efficient service availability.

Managed and maintained a production Kubernetes cluster, upgraded and migrated Helm charts, implemented high-availability services, and elevated platform security and observability, reinforcing efficient and automated DevOps operations.

Provided strategic architecture and software development consulting, leading adoption of modern backend architecture and cloud platforms, and guiding teams towards scalable and maintainable solutions.

Contributed to the architecture and feature development of a cloud-native animation platform, implementing robust frontend and backend modules, serverless integrations, and scalable CI/CD pipelines.

Developed a PWA for a restaurant system to replace the previous slower backend-rendered frontend. The new solution integrates into the existing frontend and, thanks to its internal state management, provides a faster and more responsive user experience.

Developed a billing integration for a restaurant system with microservice architecture and Billingo API integration.

Developed a complete memorial website portal with login, profile and role management, content upload features, and map integration. Unfortunately, the project was discontinued due to legal issues.

Developed a QR code-based payment integration for a restaurant system. Later, extended the integration with menu synchronization and order processing. The integration currently handles hundreds of payments and orders on a weekly basis.

Created a website for a mechanical engineering company. Later, extended it with quotation request features.

Developed a serial port and Bluetooth-based cash register integration for a restaurant system, which makes the payment process faster and more efficient.

Worked on the fiscal printing integration of a restaurant system. The integration is active in more than 100 restaurants and has already handled over 4 million print operations. The system is specifically designed to be fault-tolerant against disconnections, yet still ensures near-instant operation.

Promoted from previous role as a senior developer to a lead developer. Currently working on architecture planning, mentoring colleagues, introducing modern cloud technologies, and providing guidance. Working closely with the team, our goal is to maintain the market-leading position of the LearningSpace product while leveraging standard and modern technologies to support medical learners and educators.

During this time at CAE Healthcare Hungary, worked on the LearningSpace product. Initially, work involved fixing bugs in the existing codebase, but later was tasked with standardizing the codebase and setting up CI pipelines. After that, started working on developing a new module. During this time, gained knowledge of the full stack and became a part of the architecture team. Main responsibilities included setting technology goals, introducing modern technologies, replacing custom solutions with industry standards, and optimizing processes.

Used to develop custom RPA solutions, but then started to work on a new process discovery tool called Nika. Job was to design software architectures, to do the software development, cloud-based operations, and to help the team members. Used Docker, AWS and Micro Service Architecture.

Developed a map-based research result sharing portal for the Image processing laboratory in 2 months.

Design, implementation and operation of a production support solution (ordered by Foxconn). Worked with two students on the project, the software was completed in 9 months. After that, only minor fixes were needed. It has been used ever since. Created a full-stack solution for production line workers that assigns tasks and makes them easy to understand. As well as a user-friendly interface, which also improved production efficiency.

They deal with IT networking and operation. Developed a full stack solution for the existing invoicing program, which created analyzes of the issued invoices.
