José Chaparro - Full Stack Engineer

About Me

Full Stack Engineer with 2+ years of production experience building backend-heavy systems in Python and .NET, deploying cloud infrastructure on AWS, and developing cross-platform applications.

Currently at Moneta Market, where I own the microservices architecture: a 6-container production platform integrating ML pipelines, event-driven webhooks, and a C# desktop app. I also work as an independent contractor building full-stack systems with React, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL.

Full Stack Engineer

Moneta Market LLC

  • Architected the company's first containerized platform: 6-service Docker Compose stack (2 FastAPI microservices, Label Studio, MLflow, Nginx reverse proxy) deployed on AWS EC2 with private networking and automated health checks
  • Designed an 18-table PostgreSQL schema on AWS RDS with 18 foreign keys, 28+ strategic indexes, a custom idempotent migration system, and soft-delete audit trail; accessed via SSH tunnel through EC2 bastion host
  • Built an event-driven FastAPI webhook service integrating Label Studio with S3: Repository pattern, atomic DB/S3 rollback on failure, async connection pooling, and in-memory cache with DB fallback
  • Developed a cross-platform C# desktop app (.NET 10, Avalonia, migrated from Windows-only WPF) for human review of ML-labeled video frames: MVVM architecture, two-pass verification workflow, and sliding-window prefetch cache
  • Implemented least-privilege IAM policies and AWS Secrets Manager for credential management; used LocalStack for local S3 emulation without exposing production credentials
