I worked on Better's core technology, infrastructure, and culture to support engineers in doing their best work.

I worked on engineering onboarding, improving internal tooling, and mentorship programs. Facebook's unusual process—engineers choose their team after onboarding for six weeks—requires a lot of tooling, data, and planning to operate effectively.I built tooling to give operations teams insights into course feedback, mentored junior engineers, improved reliability, and identified products that should be shut down and replaced with off-the-shelf options.I also built out the tool used by FB's global culinary team to manage allergens and diet restrictions, plan menus, and print "food card" labels that Facebook employees use every day to choose what to eat for lunch (a perk that many regarded as core to their FB experience).

I worked on the team that managed Gilt's recommendations engine and flash sale ranking algorithm. I made our daily batch ML pipeline more reliable by building a lightweight job DAG engine (later open-sourced https://tech.hbc.com/2017-08-04-sundial-batch.html) and helped the organization transition to dockerized deployments with simple CLI tools.

Dispatch was initially a "front door to the cloud". We built a product that make it easier to collaborate across cloud platforms. After our initial launch, we shifted the product's focus to email collaboration.I built out the back-end that was responsible for quickly and reliably transferring files between cloud services, securely managing users' authentication methods, and sending/receiving email.Started out of Techstars NYC's Summer 2011 class; acquired by Meetup in 2013.

Backend development on a client team and limited Javascript/Python frontend work. Primary engineer for database architecture, performance testing, and search approach.

Worked on the Digital Charge and Ordering System team on the platform software that handles all digital (MP3, Kindle, Video on Demand) orders.
