• Architected and built a greenfield ETL pipeline in TypeScript and React using Domain Driven Design to intake flexible data formats from 100+ ERP solutions to be extracted and transformed into the standard GS1 format solving internal bottlenecks within integrations.• Outshined management expectations by delivering an already aggressive project timeline of 3 months within 2 1/4 months with a full test suite while utilizing bleeding-edge technology including React Hooks and unreleased versions of React Cache to completely remove Redux and RxJS.• Created unit, integration, and E2E tests using Jest, Enzyme and Cypress reducing the feedback loop during development and strengthening CI/CD.

• Lead and manage a remote scrum team to build a P2P mobile payments and Point of Sale application for the largest hospitality group utilizing Plaid, Stripe, Dwolla, React, React Native, Node, Firebase and GraphQL reducing the cost per transaction by 2 to 3 percent.• Rewrote the homegrown GraphQL back-end to the industry standard increasing the team's ability to test, debug and maintain the codebase.• Utilized React's Context API removing Redux completely to increase testability, reduce ramp-up for new engineers and code complexity.• Implemented Jest and Enzyme test framework to cultivate a culture of Test Driven Development (TDD) resulting in test coverage of 85 percent.

During the past year I worked as a cross-functional member across three Scrum teams. I encouraged code and knowledge sharing to keep the teams in sync with development processes and reuse code to build out new solutions. I Used NodeJS, Ruby on Rails, Capistrano, Gulp, AngularJS, Typescript, C++, Amazon EC2 and Lambda, Activiti, Jenkins, TestRail, Shell, Jasmine, Karma and Protractor to build features and applications that would save lives and improve patient outcomes across the care continuum.Provider Access Software* Lead and managed the largest Angular Refactor in order to organize the repository structure, DRY up our code (pun intended), simplify our code to easily transition to a modern front end framework such as VueJS.* Transitioned our C++ code to RESTful APIs to simplify our control flow and make our code easier to debug, maintain and unit test.Gateway/IRIS* Improved our shell install scripts to reduce redundancies when updating and installing our applications on hardware that are behind hospital firewalls.* Assisted with the creation of a microservice structure to allow smaller, more manageable, applications strip DICOM headers, retrieve PACS imaging and information, and translate it in a customer facing solution.* Utilized Test Driven Development with Ruby On Rails to reduce the risk of bugs and clearly define features within our applications.Clinical Apps 2* Built modules and widgets within AngularJS and Activiti that allow nontechnical users to quickly create workflow solutions and SOAP notes customized per health organization standards.* Rewrote our JavaScript code to Typescript so it will be easier to transition to Angular2.* Designed and built our process for TDD using Karma, Jasmine and Protractor from the ground up utilizing page object inheritance, Jenkins and TestRail to create quantifiable metrics for our QA team and optimize sprints.
