Projects

2022.04 – 2025.03

Yizhi Psychology

Technical Manager / Project Lead

A comprehensive psychological assessment platform with a B2B admin console for enterprises and a B2C assessment mini-program for end users, covering online assessments, report generation, third-party payments, AI customer service, and big-data operational analytics.

Architecture

  • Business services: Spring Cloud Alibaba microservices, containerized on a self-managed Kubernetes cluster on Alibaba Cloud ECS
  • Managed cloud services: Alibaba Cloud RDS (MySQL), Redis, RocketMQ, CDN/global acceleration, lightweight application load balancing
  • Self-managed middleware: Nacos, Seata, ZooKeeper, and Kafka deployed across a cluster of ECS instances
  • AI and data layer: Python (FastAPI) + PyTorch + Spring AI + Milvus
  • Big-data pipeline: Kafka (ingestion) → HDFS + HBase (storage) → Flink (stream processing) → Alibaba Cloud Quick BI (reporting)

Key contributions

  • End-to-end delivery: Owned the product from zero to launch, defined milestones and iteration plans, and coordinated product, backend, frontend, QA, and data resources, reaching a 95% on-time delivery rate. The architecture mixed several Alibaba Cloud services with self-managed clusters, requiring careful coordination of deployment order and environment stability.
  • Risk identification and control: Identified launch risks in the AI customer service system (response latency, model hallucination) and prepared fallback plans and a canary release strategy in advance, bringing the new feature live without disruption.
  • Cross-team coordination: Aligned backend, frontend, algorithm (AI model fine-tuning), and data (big-data pipeline) teams on interface contracts and delivery milestones, driving the integration of AI capabilities and the data platform into the existing system.
  • Data requirements: Coordinated resource scheduling and integration work for the big-data infrastructure (Kafka ingestion, Flink stream processing, Alibaba Cloud Quick BI reports) so that operational reporting needs were delivered on time.
  • Process discipline: Introduced GitFlow collaboration conventions and code review, and established a release checklist, reducing the production defect rate year over year.
  • External integrations: Worked with the WeChat Pay and Alipay payment channels, coordinated business and legal teams on merchant qualification applications, and designed idempotent callbacks that kept payment errors at zero.
