FYUL is the parent company of both Printful and Printify, a powerful pair of print-on-demand and fulfillment (dropshipping) providers that help people turn their ideas into brands and products. This role was carried over from Printful after the merger with Printify. The merged teams were the result of a selection process to keep the best talent from the existing companies.

After the merger, I joined the SSV Team, which is in charge of the core print file and mockup generation services and related infrastructure. At that moment I faced one of my biggest challenges at Printful: learning and becoming productive in Rust against the clock, in just a few weeks.

Here are some key highlights of my role at FYUL after the merger:

• Key figure and reference back-end expert within the team. Highly valued team member, as highlighted during performance reviews.
• Leading key company projects, including the consolidation efforts to bring together and harmonize Printful's and Printify's solutions.
• Doing technical and architectural analyses. Research, viability assessments, technical implementation documents, etc.
• Developing and maintaining multiple complex and interconnected pieces of software, ensuring good architecture, maintainability and reusability.
• Optimization of code performance, database queries and related elements. Proactive monitoring and profiling, proposing solutions and improvements.
• Writing comprehensive unit and integration tests for every task.
• Collaboration with international teams of dozens of developers within the company.
