LaunchDarkly is expanding their successful feature flagging product by refining pricing, marketing, and product lines. My work involves:Building most of the ingestion for the main analytics warehouse including batch, streaming, and polling workflows. Packaged pipelines in terraform modules, managed organic adoption by multiple other teams.Creating predictable interfaces through standard warehousing techniques and careful transformations. Stable costs and operation despite orders of magnitude more source data per month.Establishing and refining development operations - deployment, CI, tagging compliance. Focused on team speed and effectiveness. Widely praised for being a joy to work with.Finding and sometimes being point person for resolving a number of emergencies. Incorrect billing numbers, emails not being sent, an abandoned 15TB/month pipeline.Establishing a sustainable technology footprint. Many fewer scary incidents than this time last year.
