My team focuses on full-stack engineering related to generative AI, natural-language understanding/processing, and large-language models.

I drive innovation - how to use existing technologies in new ways, how to use new technologiesI design complex software systems and provide infrastructure components to reduce the complexity at the application levelI communicate architecture principles and provide reference prototypes and samples that demonstrate the principlesI am more "blue collar" than "ivory tower" - working directly with teams to assist with component design and sometimes I get the chance to design and code componentsI am a fan of DEVOPS. If code that I own fails, I want to know about it as soon as possible so I can deliver a fix. I would expect all developers to be the same. I think that today developers can create their own personal OPS dashboards that make the most sense to them - the APIs are there. I also love Continuous Delivery automation to empower DEVOPS.Cloud technologies have changed the architecture landscape - more defined boundaries between application and technical architecture. One of my primary architecture principles is to use managed service securely to deliver quickly, reduce maintenance and cost, and provide business value. That takes a lot of pressure off me when wearing the application architect hat.Most of my previous work has been in Java focusing on server development mainly around the servlet spec with MVC patterns. My current work is in Golang and focuses on integration with AWS - S3, SWF, and ML primarily.A couple of Golang repos that I can share publicly. They represent initial work in Golang. Current repos are private and cannot be shared to protect Fidelity IP.https://github.com/kengibson1111/tour-of-gohttps://github.com/kengibson1111/go-packagesThe crypto stuff was probably the most fun. I like to gather notes and samples in my own repos and work from that. It's the best way to learn for me.

My team addresses common platform concerns for Fidelity Brokerage Technologies and Fidelity Institutional business units: APIs, API aggregation, event-driven architecture, UI/experience.
