I was part of the Research & Development unit as one of three engineers. We were responsible for developing complex apps under aggressive deadlines. We operated directly under the CEO.- Spearheaded end-to-end testing framework Protractor / Jasmine integration in platform as a continuous integration initiative. Coached engineers on overall philosophy of the technology and best practices when writing spec files. Coordinated engineers on which features to write specs for in order to get the most coverage per line of code.- Lead Angular front end development of a cutting-edge IVR system editor that recursively loads/saves JSON, binds this data to several different components, and add/remove nodes that maintain overall row and column order. Mentored engineers on best practices in component based architecture such as separation of concern. - Prototyped a realtime speech-to-text language translator and sentiment analyzer using React and web sockets. The data came from a relay which isolates the caller's voice, streams it to ASR and language translators and finally back to the app. Analyzed and reported how the architecture can be used to improve current platform and serve as a catalyst for future applications.
