Larry Mckenzie Email and Phone Number

I am currently leading the engineering team at Agapé. We are building consumer facing application to help people connect in a meaningful way each day.

As a tech lead on the team that built the new eBay Motors app from scratch using Flutter, I am involved with every aspect of the product development. I train and mentor more junior engineers while quickly iterating on features for our users. I come up with novel and innovative solutions to our users problems and follow through to see the ideas actually ship to users.

After my initial work as a consultant I was brought on board as a full-time engineer. I worked on an excellent team, developing features for a variety of classifieds business units that relied on our mobile application. I was responsible for accurately estimating user stories and delivering features on time.

I have updated the eCG Android apps for Canada, South Africa, Mexico, Argentina, Australia, and Italy to follow Material Design guidelines. I work with a diverse team in multiple countries, coordinating with remote and local team members to simultaneously introduce new features.

I was the founder of My World News. MWN is personalized TV news on demand. Think Netflix for local news. We help you discover, follow, and watch the news from a growing number of TV stations and journalists who live and work in your community.

I was assigned as an on-site consultant for the eBay Classifieds Group. My initial focus was bringing all of the active applications inline with Material Design guidelines. Additionally I added new features on multiple eCG Android apps available around the world and used daily by millions of users.
