## Work Experience
### Senior Software Engineer @ Testcode
Jan 2021 – Present | New York, New York, United States
We are a four people team backed by a16z, building consumer products and being experimental. We have built six products so far most of them mobile apps written in React Native others are web apps written in React. Working on the entire stack including backend, frontend and product.

Worked on a brand new marketplace product as a full stack engineer using primarily React, Ruby on Rails, Postgres, Kafka.

### Senior Software Engineer @ Chartbeat
Jan 2019 – Jan 2020 | New York City
Worked as part of the frontend engineering team while doing minimal backend work. I've lead our transition from Angular to React and built the first product written entirely in React back in 2015. I've lead the frontend efforts in many brand new and existing products rich with data visualizations that delight non-technical user base. I also worked in product exploration teams doing user interviews and design sprints.

### Software Engineer @ Chartbeat
Jan 2015 – Jan 2019 | New York City

### Creator @ Opensea
Jan 2014 – Jan 2015 | New York, United States
During my junior year in college, there was a wave of anonymous social apps. Secret, Whisper, YikYak and more were taking the tech world by storm. I built and launched Opensea. Instead of using location to group users into feeds we used their college email extensions. This way we aimed to capture the users during spring break and summer vacation while other apps became virtually useless. We had a quick hit in various college campuses however I decided to shut it down as I saw misuse, bullying and legal issues happening to other apps. Anonymous social networks didn't turn out to be an idea that caught on, but this was a great and fun experience for me from all technical, product and strategy aspects.

### Software Engineering Intern @ Chartbeat
Jan 2014 – Jan 2014 | New York City
