I'm a software engineer, Linux tinkerer, server builder, solution designer, and all-around computer science enthusiast. I love the feeling of "flow" that happens when I get really drawn into a project or a problem. I think that's what got me hooked on computing - either that, or my third-grade desire to run my own video game servers!
I contribute to our backend development and AI efforts as we build out a dynamic startup product, helping job seekers get more interviews! More details will come after I settle into this role.
I implemented features and fix bugs in a RESTful backend architecture using Python, Django framework, and PostgreSQL. I created highly performant search engines for our product's hot paths, using Meilisearch as a derivative datastore. I built asynchronous image ingestion, image optimization, and web scraping task pipelines using Celery and Redis. I worked directly with both our product team and our users to find sensible solutions that balanced technical complexity against user needs. I designed, established, and maintained our cloud infrastructure, having converted an ad-hoc server-based deployment to a scalable and reproducible stack via Terraform and ECS.
I built and maintained features for multiple products, using event-driven and RESTful microservices. I pioneered highly-parallel, high-throughput software designs using Kafka and Scala. I collaborated with the product team and key customers to design new features. I migrated customers from private cloud hosting provider to AWS. I interviewed candidates for engineering teams and helped develop our technical interview process.
On the Voice Automation team, I worked on VXML applications which take millions of calls per year, handling tasks ranging from calling crews for duty to helping employees track their remaining vacation time. I also made services accessible to other teams, including applications handling thousands of text-to-speech queries per day.
