When I joined Cox, my mission was to design/develop a solution to bolt modular frontend components (micro frontends) using new core domain APIs into legacy monolith applications within Cox's portfolio. There was an attempted solution before I came on board, but it missed deadlines, was fraught with countless bugs/issues, and ultimately failed. I researched and devised a new solution with fellow architects and senior engineering staff. In less than a year, I helped build/hire a team of five engineers, whom I would lead to execute the necessary steps to reach our end goal. We met our deliverables on schedule for a critical product launch at the largest retail automotive trade show. The product was a wild success, providing increased MRR (kudos to a fantastic product team). The framework we built is now widely being used across various teams across the business, continuing to bring value.The micro frontends are built in stenciljs within a monorepo (Lerna) to provide hyper-integration with standard capabilities. They communicate securely with BFFs coded in .NET core C# and hosted on AWS ECS. The frontends are highly responsive and feature an advanced UX (drag-and-drop, various uploading capabilities, image manipulation, etc.) We also were among the first teams to pioneer utilizing Github Actions to manage our entire CI/CD process. I had a lot of fun and worked with some brilliant people. It was a hard decision for me to leave this well-respected organization, but ultimately, the unique opportunity at Quokka was a new challenge that I couldn't resist!

I supported a world class team consisting of 17 engineers across various business lines. Providing input and guidance for task decomposition, software design and architecture. One of my last projects with this team was to spearhead building out a fully faceted search capability (think autotrader) to support over a million vehicles in a marketplace. Researched and selected Elasticsearch to power the backend of this and built ingestion and optimized indexes in a matter of weeks. Primarily develop architecture and design in Express API with TypeScript using Inversify. Processing millions of dollars in transactions using Stripe and Plaid. Built out integration test suite using Postman Cloud, and wired in using newman into CI. Using TypeORM on top of AWS Aurora PostgreSQL cluster for data interaction. BullMQ for job queuing and long running background processes.Additionally work on numerous data engineering initiatives capturing IoT vehicle telemetry data using small node processes hosted out in AWS ECS. Hands on efforts in normalizing data then sending through an ingestion pipeline using SNS, SQS, Kinesis which lands in various big data sources (DynamoDB, Redshift, S3). Interface with numerous teams across the business (PMO, InfoSec, Client Relations, etc) to review project plans, systems design, customer facing improvements.

Re-joined Holman to work on their Strategic Ventures team.Developed innovative products for the automotive industry.Namely:Built a front end solution using streaming data (via websockets) in ReactJS using the flux pattern (with Redux) for advanced state management. Using SASS for styling, all ES 6,7,8 syntax transpiled by babel with the help of webpack. Responsive using Bootstrap 4. Heavy google maps integration. Code quality enforced by ESLint (using airbnb as base). Extensive testing using Jest.Designed and developed various Node.js worker processes that interact with various 3rd party APIs. For caching leveraging redis hashsets. Worker processes live inside their own Docker containers that scales horizontally using AWS ECS. All code written using modern ES with dependency injection principles. Extensive testing using mocha, chai and mocks. nyc is also used to ensure proper code coverage of tests. Wrote various AWS Lambda functions using the serverless framework in both C# and Node.js.As senior engineer on team, mentoring and training junior staff. Tracking workflow via Zenhub boards.
