Jan 2016 – Jan 2017 | San Francisco, California As a staff software engineer, I led a team of four developers over several quarters to deliver projects supporting our care and medical teams. One of my proudest achievements is that I helped to foster a supportive and collaborative environment for my teammates to ask questions and grow. * My team increased their productivity by 33% quarter over quarter, and delivered their entire roadmap. * We delivered order-of-magnitude performance improvements in key internal services. * I sponsored the introduction of React.js and Redux into our tech stack, and trained my team in these tools as well as ES6 and functional programming concepts. We re-implemented a critical dashboard used by hundreds of internal users a day using this technology. ### Senior Software Engineer @ Grand Rounds, Inc.

The project resulted in NPS scores from our experts of 30+. * I re-implemented the business processes around our consumer services in a workflow management system, and migrated existing cases to the new system with zero downtime. This allowed us to iterate much more quickly on the steps and collaborators involved in delivering our service. * I built a rules-based worker recommendation engine, saving 15 minutes of manual calculation per collaborator per case. ### Software Engineer @ Palantir Technologies Jan 2014 – Jan 2014 | Palo Alto, CA I worked on a data warehousing product backed by Cassandra and Elasticsearch. * I maintained and improved tools for installing and managing active installations. * I developed and updated client applications for querying the product across multiple schemas. * I built tools to automate the testing and product release pipeline. ### Software Simulation Engineer @ Palantir Technologies Jan 2013 – Jan 2014 | Palo Alto, CA I developed end to end automation and test infrastructure for an enterprise Java application. * I wrote complete sets of test harnesses for several Palantir products to manage installation, task invocation and verification. * I wrote and maintained end to end tests. * I developed a JSON API for specifying and executing a full stack installation and configuration across multiple machines. (Think Amazon CloudFormation but for an enterprise app.) ### Infrastructure Quality Engineer @ Palantir Technologies Jan 2012 – Jan 2013 | Palo Alto, CA I wrote and executed test plans for backend features of Palantir products.
