Experience

Software Engineer | 2021-05 - present

Led the design and development of Negotiation Data Service (NDS), a suite of APIs powering financial metrics for contract negotiations with third-party vendors. Improved P99 latency by 97% over legacy systems using AWS ECS, Aurora, Glue, and S3.
Built a scalable data ingestion and processing pipeline supporting 100GB+ weekly loads, including cross-region S3 access and a standardized Spark/Glue framework that reduced job development time from 7 to 2 days.
Owned a React + Express negotiation portal with 1,000+ monthly users, backed by CloudFront, API Gateway, and Lambda. Improved portal performance by 1.8s P99 via multi-layer caching and lazy loading, optimizing critical API paths by 94%.
Designed a schema-driven validation system that eliminated 70K monthly customer-facing errors, streamlining negotiations and improving conversion rates.

Cloud Engineer | 2020-04 - 2020-08

Developed data engineering pipelines using Apache Airflow and Astronomer, including transactional ingestion pipelines for YETI.
Re-designed a metrics ETL pipeline for Battlefield 5 metrics. It cut DAG count by 50% and simplified maintenance.
Owned the design of a CI/CD deployment pipeline with automated release branch creation, change detection, and version tagging, reducing integration time to a single verification step.

Software Engineer | 2018-05 - 2019-08

Worked on development of a new RESTful search API built with Spring Boot, supporting high-traffic search use cases for the retail site. ‍
Improved search relevancy and admin tooling using Apache Solr, enhancing result quality and operational efficiency.
Developed Docker base images and platform standards for OpenShift across Java, Node.js, and OpenJDK services.
Automated application and server migrations using Python and Ansible, and supported enterprise-scale monitoring adoption by deploying Dynatrace across on-prem and Azure-managed clusters.

Electrical Engineer | 2021-09 - 2022-04

Captone project. Worked on a scale prototype evaluating the feasibility of an automated log-scanning gantry robot for the forestry industry in partnership with FPInnovations. Contributed to project requirements definition, motor selection, and mechanical system design, and developed the control logic governing gantry operation and scanning workflows.

Aircraft Electronics Desinger | 2017-10 - 2020-06

Active member of a competitive UAS design team building industry-grade drones for international competitions. Worked on the aircraft subteam, designing electrical systems, selecting components, and tuning multicopter flight characteristics.
Designed a modular low-side current sensor, sourcing components to specification and developing custom PCBs. Built an RSSI-based antenna tracker that dynamically oriented the ground antenna to maximize signal strength, improving aircraft range and link reliability.
Contributed to 5.8 GHz camera systems and image recognition features used during competition missions.
