Udemy Attribution System Migration

Overview

Contributed to the transition of Udemy’s Attribution System — responsible for tracking and crediting marketing channels for user conversions — from a Python/Django monolith to a modern Kotlin/Spring Boot microservice.

Challenges

• Addressed complex challenges around synchronous and asynchronous communication between downstream microservices.
• Ensured attribution accuracy was preserved throughout the migration with no data loss during cutover.

Outcomes

• Cleaner service boundaries and improved maintainability in the payments/attribution domain.
• Foundation established for further reliability improvements across the attribution pipeline.
