I thoroughly enjoy building SaaS applications. I like to be involved in every step of development from conception to production. Which has led me to be very opinionated and passionate about the solutions I build. Strong opinions lead to purposeful decisions, strong design patterns, and scalable solutions.More recently, I’ve been excited about Technical Excellence; focusing on building tools and processes to improve platform stability, time-to-market, and developer velocity.+ As the Tech Lead for the Technical Excellence Team, I architected and led my team in developing an in-house tool for deploying cross-cluster microservices to Kubernetes using Golang and React as a web service with both web and CLI clients and CI/CD integration. (Verizon)+ Worked on a team building a new series of microservices for managing playback session iteration using Golang. (Verizon)+ Designed, architected, and built a microservice for managing and emitting webhook events to customers using Golang. (Verizon)+ Helped split our front end deploy processes from our backend deploys. Built a CLI using Golang that can be used by individual devs as well as integrated into our CI/CD reducing avg front end deploys from 2hrs to 5-10 min. (Verizon)+ Helped build microservices to monitor video slicer services using Python, Django, and Ember. (Verizon)+ Helped build Live Event Scheduler, a web app used by ESPN and others to schedule live broadcasts. (Verizon)+ Helped build a video clipping tool for clipping VOD assets as well as live streams. (Verizon)+ Built event-booking web app that was used daily by large companies like Twitter, Uber, Twitch, and more to book conference rooms. (Teem)+ Built Desk Booking tool for businesses that allow their employees to see availability/book the desk they work from each day. (Teem)+ Helped develop several key features of an Application Tracking System (ATS) to help students track their search for employment. (JobDash)+ Built 7 flagship portals to help future students decide where they want to go to school.
