Running a global team passionate about making the player's experience a high quality one and empowering game developers both inside and outside of EA to leverage the breadth of EA's digital platform

Redwood City, Ca, Us

Part of the core Platform and Infrastructure organization working on building reliable distributed systems. I lead teams focused on the Player and Developer Experience when playing our games or when making them. The Player Experience teams analyze systems end-to-end to identify areas that may cause a poor experience before game launch and use machine learning to provide actionable insights and auto recovery techniques when a player impacting event occurs post launch. I also lead the Developer Experience charter which is the single point of integration onto the EA Digital platform for a game developer, analyst, operations engineer or anyone else who wants to build amazing games using our platform

I worked with very large data sets to build machine learnt models to improve ship time and ship cost estimates for eBay marketplace buyers and sellers. In this role I have managed multiple teams including cross border trade and logistics for eBay marketplace with a special focus on integrating with 3rd parties to enable the Asia Pacific corridor.

San Jose, Ca, Us

I managed the teams responsible for building the eBay core shipping carrier integration platform, shipping and labels specific applications on top of the platform. The platform's goal was to be carrier and marketplace agnostic to enable rapid onboarding of new carriers serving multiple corridors. This involved designing and building a massively distributed and highly scalable system to manage the daily transaction volumes at eBay. I hired and managed both development and testing teams in this role

I worked across Bing Search in several key areas the most recent of which was on the query rewriting team using alteration aware ranking to improve relevance and quality for ranker unfriendly segments, using user feedback and behavior for improved learning. I worked on whole page relevance to create task based targeted search experiences. I worked on deep vertical experiences in the entertainment, realtime and news domains to develop deeper and richer experiences for search in these verticals. One such vertical was news where I worked on the entire search stack (crawling, indexing, serving and user experience for browsing). I was also responsible for setting test strategy and vision across multiple teams, developing people and technically leading these areas.

Redmond, Washington, Us

I worked on a team that built productivity and quality control tools for developers internally to help them ship high quality software. I also worked on products to enable shared development by providing an open and extensible low touch infrastructure for sharing code, best practices, automated builds and tests. This team was built from scratch and I wore many hats: defining product, working on core features, setting up infrastructure for automating builds and running tests against these builds, creating a test harness and automation for the product, end-to-end product life cycle ownership, release management, operations and live site.

I worked as a developer on the terminal emulation suite of products (EXTRA, InfoConnect). I was also part of the install core team for creating MSIs and developing tools to validate setup scenarios.
