At UI I work as a full stack web developer, building new user-facing features in React.js and Typescript as well as optimizing the Ruby on Rails backend as they scale.
Some of my achievements:
•Improved participant search and study matching performance by over 60% and corresponding asynchronous job latency by almost 100% through a re-architecture using Elasticsearch
•Led projects as a senior engineer and tech lead: broke down technical tasks, estimated efforts, and mentored less experienced developers
•Architected a filtering/searching API to maintain consistency between UI’s public and internal APIs
•Bolstered the security and reliability of our third-party integrations, including re-architecting the scheduling feature
•Quickly and iteratively shipped UX improvements for participant, researcher, and internal user types
