Built up the technical team, processes, and systems for an ed-tech startup that has had 100% up-time since launch while still actively contributing to code-base* Empowered engineering, product, and UX teams with industry best practices to achieve a history of on-time project delivery* Spearheaded effort creating and maintaining company-wide goal setting framework (OKRs), ensuring all effort is tied to quarterly and annual company objectives* Implemented product instrumentation, enabling data-driven product prioritization, significantly reducing time spent on low-value projects* Engaged with customers, both potential and active, via hands on user interviews and feedback sessions to understand their needs in order to improve their experience and the product* Collaborated closely with all teams and implemented both technical and non-technical tools and processes to enable no-downtime product updates* Advocated for and helped built up the non-engineering portion of the company with the necessary skill sets to deliver high quality web-based products

In addition to being a core contributor to major components of the product, oversaw technical direction of a Healthcare SaaS company all the way from a “nights-and-weekends” startup to a nationwide ~50-person company* Delivered HIPAA compliant beta product to customers within 3 months* Built, managed, and supported the mixed local-/offshore- engineering and infrastructure teams* Responsible for technical processes, architectural decisions, and system design choices, that resulted in a 100% success rate for national hospital and healthcare insurance company security reviews* Advocated for and managed complete re-build of MVP application based on learnings, resulting in efficient delivery of new product features, increased application/data availability, and reduced cost per-server* Designed and built the core workflow engine, providing a standardized way to deliver flexibility to customers, thus significantly reducing the need for custom development when onboarding clients* Managed vendor relationships with various third-party tools, systems, and services

Overhauled and automated the marketing team’s lead generation contact list pipeline* Designed, implemented, and trained staff on an ETL pipeline, thereby addressing all previous issues of duplicate, missing, and erroneous data, resulting in better marketing campaigns

• Core member of a group of researchers that moved the lab's research infrastructure to AWS, reducing costs and increasing availability of resources• Designed and performed research that combines transcriptional expression profiles and data from next-generation sequence (NGS) technology

• Developed a molecular fingerprinting and Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) modeling technique that allows the statistical significance of each molecular substructure to be directly mapped back to the original chemical compound• Resulting predictions were visualized by coloring the activity importance of the relevant substruc- tures in each molecule to aid chemists in visually inspecting similarities and differences

• Developed a novel algorithm for hierarchical clustering of large datasets based on M-Trees and Reverse Nearest Neighbors (RNNs) that resulted in the ability to cluster roughly 250% more chemical compounds than before
