Summary

I worked on enabling product developers to run queries against production data, allowing them to debug and validate their queries without deploying their feature. This project was heavily influenced by the company's excellent dogfooding culture and required collaboration with various teams, including security and SREs, to ensure compliance and authorization. I also contributed to another project, an asynchronous queries tool that allowed for running longer-running queries asynchronously in a worker process, teaching me about system design and scalability. Throughout my internship, I was grateful for the experience, acquiring new technical skills, working with a team of competent engineers, and meeting various people across the organization, who made this experience truly unforgettable.
