I'm an experienced Software Engineer having previously worked on complex web, desktop and mobile apps in the enterprise travel booking and unified communications industries.

I am currently working at 8x8 as a Principal Software Engineer where we’re simplifying communications through a single platform.

Jan 2012 – Jan 2013
As the main developer on the integration widget, I've gathered the business requirements, planned and implemented an async-loaded third-party floating UI widget used by customer websites to display related content powered by the correlation engine wrote by the backend team.
Challenges included keeping a small code footprint and making the widget was lazy loaded without hampering host website performance, handling broad browser compatibility (IE7 still had market share at that time) and preventing css styling conflicts or JS libraries interference. The final solution was a one-line embeddable script tag that would load the widget and allow website admins to specify site configurations.
