• Contributed to feature and infrastructure development for a high-performance, multi-platform distributed genomic data transfer application, ensuring efficient data handlingacross platforms.
• Conducted performance testing and analysis to optimize the I/O subsystem performance,leading to code optimizations and enhanced kernel/driver performance.
• Developed a next-generation embedded hardware/software platform for customer utilizingLinux and the Freescale i.MX6 series ARM SoC.

Boulder, Colorado, United States

• Developed backend platform enablement and monitoring software for a leading distributediSCSI SAN storage system on Linux (C/C++, Linux, Python).
• Maintained Linux kernel tree for product and was responsible for stability, compatibility,and performance of Linux kernel in SAN application (C, Linux, networking, optimization,HW qualification).
• Conducted thorough validation of I/O performance and resource consumption of the SAN,resulting in an improved scalability of the SAN storage software. Optimized system con-figuration to increase I/O performance by 80%.
• Maintained and expanded the SNMP agent and MIBs for comprehensive hardware andsoftware platform monitoring, providing event notification and streamlined managementof the system.

Austin, Texas, United States

• Designed and implemented Linux kernel hot data migration solution to take advantage ofhybrid HDD/SSD storage pools using the btrfs filesystem with small Agile team (Linuxkernel, C, git).
• Created algorithms and data structures for lightweight data access frequency accountingand efficiently bounded migration decision-making (C, algorithms, data structures).
• Completed I/O performance benchmarking using open source and proprietary tools.

New York, New York, United States

• Developed flagship web application for collection, processing, analysis, and review of busi-ness data.
• Designed, prototyped, and implemented queue-based distributed data processing platform.
• Responsible for in-house software to automate processing of electronically stored informa-tion to various litigation support software packages.
• Optimized existing production software to increase production capacity, reduced errorsby integrating automated quality control checks into production processes, and developedsoftware to enable Daegis to meet emerging.

Atlanta, Georgia, United States

• Served as technical consultant to attorneys and the firm’s clients on electronic discov-ery issues, electronic document retention, litigation holds, data collection, data forensics,document indexing and searching, and.
• Managed large discovery databases in complex litigation throughout the litigation lifecycle(initial data collection to trial).
