I span the software product life cycle for a small company. If it's technical in nature and related to helping us to succeed and grow, my hands are in it. From a technical level, this includes iOS development, front and back end web development, embedded hardware development and troubleshooting, and whatever else needs to be done. If we don't have the skills in-house, we open up the firehose and acquire them. From an enterprise level, I use my experience and judgement to help make good decisions on everything from architecture, tools, design, deployment strategies, etc. It's a very good place to be and I work with some fantastic people. Highlights include:-Built out API communication between our fertility charting app and back-end server.-Managed and implemented migration to a modern eCommerce platform, including writing a custom Woocommerce integration.-Built custom process engineering software to improve everything from fraud identification to customer service workflow.-Rebuilt suite of product websites with new platform and consistent look and feel.

Software lead on in-vehicle telematics device from concept to commercial production: Proof of concept, drivers, architecture, communication API, benchmarking optimization, data-driven test evaluation, etc. We saved an entire chip off the BOM by squeezing enough performance out of the modem's on-board Python interpreter to use it as the primary software stack. It was a fantastic experience with a great team and I'm very proud of my work there. Patent granted 2017
