## Work Experience
### Senior Software Engineer @ athenahealth
Jan 2023 – Present | Watertown, Massachusetts, United States

### Software Engineer @ Zeenk
Jan 2021 – Jan 2023
Developed and maintained Zeenk's Java backend platform:
    •Slashed client onboarding time 30% by implementing an ELT system to extract advertising data for different channels and transform them in various formats that powers generating reports for customer centric data analysis
    • Enhanced backend module communication by building a RESTful webservice in Java that refreshes Airbyte data pulls and process channels on schedule, designed and coded API endpoints that allows data syncing off-schedule when needed
    • Upgraded data processing service which leverages Java Spark SQL to load and transform advertising data from AWS S3 buckets and persists them into snowflake datastore which helps streamline the data processing flow 
    • Minimized human intervention by scheduling jobs in Python using AWS Lambda and AWS batch to invoke data processing
    • Provides real-time monitoring and insights into zeenk's backend platform by installing snowflake dashboards

Built user authentication&authorization system using TypeScript and Auth0:
    • Redesigned and architected a NodeJS web application for user invitation and login flow which served as the foundation for user authentication system
    • Unblocked critical client's onboarding by setting up machine-to-machine authentication which allows automated machine autentications and configured Okta as SAML identity provider to allow user authentication with existing third-party Okta account
    • Implemented machine-to-machine user authentication flow that allows backend to backend interaction and configured Okta as SAML identity provider to allow user authentication with existing Okta account
    • Designed and tested REST API to ensured smooth transition for legacy users from existing PHP system into new user authentication system. This migration signicately reduced cost and failure rate

### Software Engineer @ Nanigans
Jan 2018 – Jan 2021 | Boston, Massachusetts, United States
• Developed new features and maintained an open-source Python data processing library called TQL, which was used by academia and Nanigans data science team for machine learning applications and data modeling
• Migrated and re-implemented legacy RTB(Real-time Bidding) Platform into Java Dropwizard-based webservice which expedited code deployment and overall system response time
• Worked with team using agile and scrum development methodologies

### Design Database Release Engineer @ Oracle
Jan 2016 – Jan 2017 | Santa Clara
• Collaborated with team members to create a regression system which quickly ports manual regression process to automated web-based platform and increased the engineering work efficiency by 50%
• Wrote a script perl which processes regression data to streamline GRS flow, enabling minimal or no change when adapted to other regression progress
• Applied mySQL database to store regression result and XML file as interface to specify display rules and PHP to display regression result on internal website for easy auditing and sigh-off
management instance for new projects.
• Created a file parser to parse different domains of PrimeTime timing report files in python which acts as the key part to help bring productivity to the timing debug process
• Programmed a TAP viewer which extracts, organizes and integrates both timing and physical data in a single environment and provides multiple ways to navigate through the timing report
