Led 4 projects while onboarding a tech lead replacement, context switching across multiple projects to ensure all stayed on track. Developed and presented technical proposals, including full-stack architecture, resource estimation, and project timelines, for client pitches.

Tech Lead across multiple projects, guiding product roadmaps and developing backend system architectures for new builds, leading teams through code reviews, project management, and feature development from concept to deployment.• Led a team of 2-4 engineers over 12 months, progressing from prototype to full-scale development of a Supply Chain Emission Decarbonization platform, collaborating closely with product and sales teams to shape the product's backend architecture.• Directed a team of 3 engineers to build a Farm Sustainability tool, leveraging satellite geo-data to calculate and visualize forestry changes, ensuring compliance with EU Deforestation Laws.• Managed a team of 8 engineers to complete the backend development of an Art Lending Platform, implementing mTLS, resolving platform issues, and debugging complex backend problems. • Developed reusable backend service archetypes to reduce development time, automate processes, and maintain consistency and quality across ventures.• Rapidly prototyped POCs to address risks for potential ventures such as feasibility, viability, and desirability• Translate product requirements and desires into clear, concise, and testable components• Writing and reviewing code at all ends of the stack, maintaining NAX's bar of standard and quality high

Technical lead on a team building a new startup focused on helping companies measure and decarbonize their supply chain emissions.Assisted in identifying and honing in the idea with product, design and strategistWorked on prototypes we could pitch customers to get real feedback by along with 2 engineersIterated on the prototype to build a more complete product in 3 months expanding to 4 engineers: Implemented authentication and user management using Auth0, CockroachDB and Java Microservices Added a Supply Chain Industry Analysis tool to help companies understand what sectors host most of their emissions to increase their focus Leveraged multiple public and proprietary data sources along with AI to find a corporations' suppliers, increasing visibility into their supply chain emission sources, with the vision to eventually launch projects to decarbonize those suppliers. Prototyped another iteration on our Industry Analysis tool by leveraging EEIO models to increase credibility and coverage for all industries which resonated better with customers.

Backend engineer responsible for creating, maintaining, and refactoring multiple Java Spring Microservices running on a Kubernetes/AWS infrastructure that communicated over gRPC and Graphql. Designed a new architectural pattern for evaluating risk for Transactions, Account Linking, and EnrollmentI've implemented multiple features such as account linking, changing or forgetting passwords, and adding risk and rate-limiting checks for enrollment.I worked in both synchronous and asynchronous communication patterns across services, working with Product and Client teams to help improve our users' experience.Refactored several services and added test coverage to increase our team's throughput while decreasing defects for future iterations.

BackEnd Engineer who worked primarily on bringing professional sellers to OfferUp working in a Microservice architecture leveraging Spring, Reactive Programming, Kubernetes, AWS, and GCP.Designed and implemented multiple SpringBoot microservices required to ingest millions of listings per day, handle a professional seller's inventory and fulfillments, and manage financial transactions for a seller.Built an API Key Management service handling about 5k RPS per pod/machine with a P90 latency under 5ms.Built the service that authenticates all requests entering OfferUp's new infrastructure which grew from first, only third-party requests to all internal services at OfferUpBuilt a service to revamp a user's filter management when browsing through OfferUp which decreased latency, migrating from an older cryptic service. Implemented small features in React for our professional sellers' portal like state management for when a user was deactivated, minor changes to tables, and other pages to assist our frontend members.Spent time working on other teams to increase the speed of our dependencies to help get our products out quicker Implemented several endpoints to manage first-party ads and view their performance on the platformAssisted in offloading the Data Warehouse team with some SQL/BigQuery migration work, rewriting old SQL queries to handle migration changes from AWS to GCP.

Writing, maintaining, and enhancing RESTful Web Apis accessing data for MSN; using Azure's platform(Document/Cosmos Db, Azure Web Services, Azure Search, etc) Implemented a new search bar leveraging Azure Cognitive Search to increase search hits. Started breaking down our team's components from a monolith application into individually deployed microservices.

Created an application for internal Fraud Investigators to quickly view actions for a given user to determine whether their account had been taken over. Handled complete development leveraging the team's UI tools and framework along with the D3 Graphing Library to give easy-to-use, and reactive graphs for the investigators. Wrote backend REST APIs to hydrate the data investigators needed.

Student Center Pool Database(Microsoft Access) Built a relational database for managing reservations replacing the current pen and paper system Scheduled financial reports that analyzes frequency of reservations and revenueCreated C-shell scripts to automate processes dealing with people’s building access saving time from repetitive tasks in day

Responsible for operation of Student Center multimedia eventsTrained 4 new hired student assistants on how to operate equipment

Created Java application that inputted data into SQL database using Hibernate, and called REST APIs to manipulate processes in other platformApplication will serve as template for tech teams’ projects connecting to platform of services saving 65% of time needed to successfully connect and use platform of services
