Lowell processes many documents — scanned letters, legal documents, evidence of claims, and files from consumers. The goal of the project was to provide a central file service capable of storing and serving large volumes of unstructured documents in an audit-proof manner.
My contributions to the project::
- Concept and implementation of the file service, including deciding how to store metadata
- Design of the gRPC API
- Upload and download functionality in the gateway to the consumer portal
- Extension of the file service with MIME type support (required for downloads)
