First backend engineer on Inventory Hub, which I helped build from scratch into a live product and data platform. Additionally, Inventory Hub was Onera's first multi-tenant product. The first version of the project used Spring Boot and was built within AWS. The main business function of Inventory Hub is to track merchant inventory in real-time, and data must be taken in from a number of sources and quickly replicated throughout the system to achieve the product goals.Major… Show more First backend engineer on Inventory Hub, which I helped build from scratch into a live product and data platform.

I am a software developer in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure division. As part of my role, I primarily help build out a code generator (using mostly Java) that automatically writes code for our test framework when given the spec file for a cloud service. The code generator produces standardized code that allows us to test each service's SDK and API against a single set of tests, so onboarding time for new services is greatly reduced from when each team wrote and ran their own… Show more I am a software developer in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure division.
