I collaborated with a balanced team to build Panorama, the portfolio planning tool used by VMware R&D to organize people and projects, in Kotlin/Spring and TypeScript/React.

I led the team to replatform Panorama from Cloud Foundry to Kubernetes on AWS, including infrastructure as code with Terraform and cdk8s, single sign-on, transport layer security, domain name resolution, data migration, and alerting.

I made it safer and easier to change our codebase. I introduced a job in our CI pipeline to automatically detect breaking database migrations. I strongly typed our frontend React application by converting it from JavaScript to TypeScript, enabling safer refactors, better tests, and more powerful IDE support.

VMware acquired Pivotal on December 30, 2019. Pivotal Labs is now VMware Tanzu Labs.

I drove business, product, and technical outcomes for 28 clients across many verticals, including aerospace, energy, banking, healthcare, and government.

I served as technical lead on 15 projects for clients including Capital One, General Electric, United States Space Force, Gap, and CoreLogic.

I employed a disciplined, agile approach to full-stack web and mobile development, working side-by-side with our clients on a daily basis to train and enable their development teams.

A few highlights:

➟ I led a team to create a Kafka Streams data processing pipeline running in Kubernetes that aggregates raw data from 5 million SunPower solar devices into real-time metrics and alerts for residential and commercial customers.

➟ I led a team to extract a Python/Flask payments microservice from the DoorDash monolith with zero downtime while serving 10,000 requests/minute with a P99 response time of 80ms.

➟ I led a team to develop a real-time collaboration tool for autonomous airplane designers at Boeing using WebSockets with React, Typescript, and RxJS.

➟ I led a team to systematically eliminate technical debt in the GoDaddy Smartline Swift/iOS app by injecting dependencies, authoring tests, merging long-lived branches, and creating module seams.

➟ I led a team to build the Visa installment payments solution in Java/Spring, empowering 16,000 financial institutions to offer 3.3 billion cardholders the ability to split large purchases into smaller payments.

I developed desktop applications for Windows and Linux in modern, test-driven C++ to enable geospatial analysis and visualization in the earth and environmental sciences.

I made a broad range of contributions across our product portfolio, including 2D and 3D visualization, data import, inter-process communication, and database query optimization.

I modernized our engineering practices by integrating a unit testing framework, running workshops on test-driven development and refactoring, and driving usability testing of our flagship product.

I represented the business and technical interests of our company as co-chair of an industry-wide team to develop an open, non-proprietary standard for data exchange (RESQML).
