I worked as a consultant for Vimond, Norway, through Craftsmen. The work covered a complete media platform: video ingest and processing, CMS workflows, streaming, monetization, user and subscription management, and multi-platform delivery across web, mobile, and TV.
My focus was mainly the CMS and service layer. I worked with React, TypeScript, AWS Lambda, Java middleware, REST APIs, GraphQL, WebSocket communication, and Elasticsearch.
Notable areas:
- Media-aware dynamic CMS features
- Schedule publishing workflows
- Smart curation tools
- Internal service communication over GraphQL, REST, and WebSocket
- Search-backed editorial workflows with Elasticsearch
- Monetization and subscription-related platform features
- Video ingest and processing pipeline collaboration
The work required product, editorial, operational, and streaming concerns to fit together in a coherent platform.
