- Redesigned and led the implementation of a key service utilized for fraud detection in the checkout pipeline. Restructured the graph database by splitting data by access pattern and storing it in separate databases, resulting in a 65% reduction per year in data storage and access costs. Additionally, moved to a containerized, serverless architecture, resulting in a lower ops burden while maintaining strict latency and traffic requirements.- Designed and implemented an automated, full CI/CD service to host a machine learning model responsible for detecting text in documents received from sellers, enabling translation of the contents regardless of file type (PDF, image, etc.).- Redesigned and led implementation of a text translation service used to translate inbound communications from buyers and sellers. Refactored the API contract to support composable Natural Language Processing (NLP) workflows, allowing users to specify which NLP steps to run for a given request, resulting in wider adoption across Amazon teams and applications beyond individual string translations (ex: language detection, sentence segmentation, named entity recognition).- Authored an infrastructure as code library leveraging the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) to enable code reusability for common infrastructure patterns across my organization.- Led several initiatives to improve team devops processes – including the introduction of full CI/CD pipelines, expanded unit/integration testing, automated static code analysis, monitoring instrumentation, and anomaly detection

- Designed and implemented a solution to enable linking buyers to fraudulent sellers, resulting in thousands of fraudulent buyer account suspensions and saving an estimated $2 million in losses annually- Redesigned the schema for one of my team’s largest datasets, decreasing its size by 25% and resulting in a reduction in storage costs. Additionally, updated the Spark jobs utilizing the dataset, which cut down their run time by ~15%- Added the ability to link buyer accounts across marketplace boundaries to the main fraud detection service by querying data from multiple sources in parallel and consolidating the results, enabling the ability to suspend a distinct buyer globally for fraudulent activity in any marketplace
