URGENT: Production Deployment Architect — Microservices Networking & Gateway Fix

Budget: ₹1500 - ₹12500

Project Description: We have a massive, state-of-the-art microservices platform (Phizica) that is 99% ready, but the final production deployment is failing. It runs perfectly in a local Docker cluster, but it is currently a "dark site" to the public internet because of networking/gateway blockages.

The Technical Situation: Architecture: 10+ decoupled microservices (Node.js, Express, TypeScript, Prisma). Infrastructure: Docker Compose, PostgreSQL (PgBouncer), RabbitMQ (Outbox Pattern), and Nginx. The Problem: The machine is correctly assigned a Static Public IP (206.84.233.33), and our Nginx gateway is listening. However, we are getting Connection Timeouts from the public internet. It works on the internal office network but fails globally. Root Cause Suspected: Likely a Cloud Catalyst / Firewall NAT conflict at the ISP level (Vortex Infocom) or a misconfigured Nginx bridge between the Docker network and the WAN. What You Need to Do: Troubleshoot the Network Gate: Diagnose and bridge the gap between our Public IP and the internal Docker Nginx gateway. Firewall Orchestration: Ensure the correct port forwarding (80/443) and firewall rules (Windows/Vortex/Docker) are harmonized. SSL Deployment: Finalize the Certbot/ACME certificate issuance so the site is secure (https://phizica.com). Confirm Global Access: Verify the platform is accessible to all users worldwide, not just internal ones.

Requirements (Experts Only): Deep expertise in Docker Networking and Nginx Reverse-Proxying. Strong background with Cloud Firewalls and VPC Networking. Experience with Microservice Orchestration (Outbox patterns, internal resolvers). Must be able to work fast—we are ready for launch.
