As the team lead for the infrastructure and compute platforms, I initiated and led the expansion of our infrastructure into Australia and within the US. In this role, I embarked on a comprehensive documentation overhaul, enhancing clarity and accessibility. Recognizing an organizational gap, I transformed our Bazel build system and GitHub Actions workflows into standardized innersource products. I facilitated the business's expansion into security research by constructing the foundational AWS and Kubernetes infrastructure needed.• Eliminated waste in operational processes using Python, Bash and AWS, securing $500K (7%) in yearly expense savings for a single cost centre.• Pioneered the Bazel Community, crafting foundational documentation, rules, and tutorials, leading impactful hackathon projects• Delivered Cell Common, a set of re-usable GitHub Actions operations for continuous integration pipelines, adopted across multiple teams• Streamlined the infrastructure launch for Australia and US expansions, achieving milestones in half the projected time with Python, CloudFormation, and Terraform.

I contributed to full-stack enhancements to support enhanced rebates in OneEighty, a sales & CRM for automotive dealers. I proposed and implemented changes that would allow for cross browser testing, continuous integration of .NET projects, xUnit testing standards and database load improvements. Additionally, I authored tools aimed at improving the developer experience.• Contributed to the development of a new data access backend using .NET Dapper and JavaScript• Proposed and implemented initiatives to modernize the tech stack, including SQL, tSQLt, Vagrant, CI processes, and testing practices.• Researched and evaluated solutions to modernize the DevOps pipeline, leveraging tools like Docker

WiseVault is your digital passport, a secret store for managing your passwords, keys, tokens and other secrets. I enrolled in an entrepreneurial co-op option offered by the University of Waterloo to iterate, validate and invalidate the secret store WiseVault.• Designed, architected, and implemented the WiseVault service using C# ASP.NET and the NoSQL document store LiteDB• Worked in a self-directed capacity to realize the vision of WiseVault• Conducted user interviews and usability testing to refine the product vision• Adapted to early misconceptions and pivoted based on failures in the original product direction
