Challenges & Solutions
Media Management
Needed to handle high-volume image uploads (10+ photos per listing) with:
Optimized Firebase Pipeline
Developed a multi-stage upload system that: Generates thumbnails client-side before upload, Uses smart compression (WebP where supported), Implements cache-friendly storage rules, Reduced storage costs by 60%
Firebase Storage, React Dropzone, Browser Image Compression API
Supports 50+ concurrent uploads with 3x faster processing
Search Performance
Required sub-second response times for complex property searches across:
Indexed Search Architecture
Implemented a hybrid search solution combining: MongoDB geospatial indexes, Pre-aggregated price buckets, In-memory caching for common queries, Lazy loading of high-cost filters
MongoDB Atlas Search, Redis caching, Custom query builder
Achieved 200ms search response times at 10,000+ listings
