Currently working on tools for Natural Language Processing annotation....providing the data to the various teams that build the models used in the Natural Language applications you find in the mobile space (i.e. your phone). I am leading a worldwide team of developers working in a variety of languages (Java, Python, Ruby on Rails), to support our data creation, storage, visualization needs. We loosely follow a TDD methodology, and are catching up on technical debt from older resources. The design of our internal system is a micro-architecture, allowing us to more easily deploy and add new functionality. My responsibilities include (in no particular order): documentation, coding (all languages), code review, mentoring junior developers, design (database and architecture), deployment (and all other IT related pieces with supporting an internal production environment), monitoring, and dashboard development.

Burlington, Ma, Us

Currently working on tools for Natural Language Processing annotation....providing the data to the various teams that build the models used in the Natural Language applications you find in the mobile space (i.e. your phone).I am supporting an existing toolset written in Python (scripts and Django framework) and Javascript/HTML, and looking to merge the functionality into another toolset written in Ruby on Rails. Most of the tools have not been documented well, so I am documenting and developing safe procedures/practices for on-going support, maintenance and development for both sets of tools.

Initially started as a consultant, became a full-time employee a few months later. I am on a small team providing support monitoring and troubleshooting tools and technologies to the support desk. Our support desk works with the Liquidnet Membership whenever there is a problem called in, or proactively found/fixed. The tools are written in a variety of technologies: Java, C++, C#, ASP.NET, JavaScript, Python, and Perl, accessing an Oracle database, running in Windows and Linux environments.Currently most of my work is developing Eclipse-based plugins for a tool used by our support team to help identify and troubleshoot problems in the system and to investigate calls from the traders accessing our trading system. Some of my work includes maintaining the legacy systems I initially worked on when coming to Liquidnet. Including an ASP.NET web application, and the backend written in C# and Java.
