Built a video captioning and searching web app with 1 other engineer. I architected and built the brunt of this project and brought on this other engineer months later to help refine the front end. This app is built using AWS services with a Python framework called Masonite Framework. It is fully scalable and capable of handling large file uploads as well as operating on those files in parallel. The architecture was reviewed by the AWS WAR team and they gave it the 2nd best architecture they have reviewed since doing reviews for AWS. This company (Quicc) was recently accepted into the Comcast SportTech Accelerator. Only 10 companies are chosen out of 1000+. Comcast was highly impressed with the product only coming from a team of 4 (CEO, CTO, Founding Engineer, Full Stack Engineer). The platform is capable of 6GB of videos (artificial limit, which could be higher) and 4 hours in duration (hard limit at the moment). Once ingested, the video(s) transcript is searchable and clipable. I cannot give technical details of how but rest assured this is fully scalable and HA.

I worked on multiple projects at Zant. The first project was Preact and Golang stack. I had no experience in Golang which is where I worked primarily on. The dev shop did not either and could not find anyone with experience. I learned Golang and optimized the existing codebase which ended up helping the company earn an extension to their contract with the client. I helped set up a readme (which it lacked) for future engineers and helped onboard the other engineers. I was the team lead for this project for the Front and Back ends. We hit several deliverables and handled large scope creep from the client when it came to payment processors. After this project, I was moved onto a brand new client project to help scope, architect, and build the MVP. This project wraps up on the 31st where I am currently migrating things over to the client for hand-off. This was a Python and Django backend and React Native Mobile App front. I architected the AWS infrastructure and built the backends. This was a video streaming app with HIPAA compliance. I have many years of HIPAA compliance apps I have written/worked on. I am not officially certified though. This app has a real-time direct messaging feature using Websockets. It also has the ability to upload recorded videos as well as stream through the app. App is built for Android and iOS.

Client for my LLC - Press Start. I helped build a platform for a social media growth company. I reversed engineered some applications written by a previous engineer and integrated the API. I also built an SMS integration that helped streamline some customer experiences. (Vague description due to client privacy)

Client for my LLC - Press Start. I managed and modified their current invoicing platform that used QuickBooks API.

Client under my LLC - Press Start. I helped with old SNT Media tech. I built a machine learning model that is able to consume a web page, scrape it, and digest the text. Then it spits out a category it thinks the article is in. IE, sports, politics, weather, etc. Worked on other various tasks.
