Member of the Link & API Platform team, responsible for the reliability and internal developer productivity of common services and frameworks, such as API, webhooks, and Flex Link.
Designed and implemented a configuration framework for defining and evaluating API rate limits, and successfully migrated 100+ client facing API routes to use this framework with zero downtime.
Key contributor to Plaid’s in-house unified configurator system, a Git-and-S3 backed data store, and authoring and serving framework. It guarantees 100% read availability (useful in critical code paths); can handle >12000 reads per second for client-side apps; and retains the change history for auditability and easy reverts.
Key contributor to Plaid’s in-house asynchronous queue service, built on SQS and made type-safe with Protobuf. It reliably performs 2500 enqueue and dequeue operations per second serving 25 consumers.
Led the investigation, scoping, plan, and execution to operationally simplify the reverse-proxy layer in front of Plaid’s API, a high-priority and high-visibility reliability objective. Coordinated with the infra team to safely switch 4000 requests per second of API traffic over to the new proxies.
Mentored two summer interns, both of whom received and accepted return offers.
Scoped and implemented a code generator that generates Go code corresponding to OpenAPI schemas.
