Residential smart-camera platform — Tech Lead
I led APIs, cloud infrastructure, and analytics for a building security and resident-health camera system.
For a major Japanese residential developer, I led the software side of a smart-camera system that watches for security and health events in apartment buildings — for example someone entering without a key, or entering a bathroom and not coming out.
What I contributed
I owned APIs, infrastructure, documentation, QuickSight dashboards, incident investigation, cost reduction, and integration with partner APIs. I led two developers and held regular meetings with the client and stakeholders in Japanese. Related work for the same client included health-report and exercise-recommendation ML services and a dashboard API for their residential mobile app.
Stack
Python, AWS (EC2, Lambda, RDS, VPC peering, QuickSight), image recognition and, for adjacent products, PyTorch models.
Outcome
Operators gained monitored zones and alerts they could act on; we kept improving the system against live client needs rather than a one-shot delivery.
