- I am a strategic thinker. I am happiest when working on projects which require a great breadth of knowledge across multiple technical components and working with numerous engineering teams to build a cohesive overall technical vision and implement it successfully to bring value to customers.- I love data modeling and distributed system design - dissecting a problem into its elementary pieces, understanding how they relate to each other (and their individual component constraints), to determine the optimal physical implementation.- I have built out two offices for Amazon, one in San Francisco and one in Manhattan. In both cases I have helped hire and mentor both engineers and leadership teams on how to be effective within Amazon's culture and technical landscape.- I have a well rounded background with an education in both business and tech. I thrive in an environment where I work closely with business and design teams to bring about the right product which meets our customer's needs.- I have received top tier rating, the highest ranking possible, multiple times in my tenure at Amazon.- I am highly versed in AWS technologies for establishing, managing, and maintaining robust, secure, and scalable web services.- I have worked on a great breadth of technologies from front end single page JavaScript applications, iOS native apps, back end web Java services, access control systems, web service frameworks, and persistent data store schemas implementations.- I am passionate about mentoring and I have mentored over 10 engineers into Senior engineering roles along with numerous product managers and software development managers.- I have created and led programs to ensure engineering best practices scale across entire organizations such as Samurai groups and developer forums. These programs allow mentorship to scale beyond 1:1 interactions.
