2024 — Now
Tech lead of 6 engineers for an overhaul of Vanta's audit model to better match upmarket workflows. Prior to an Alpha launch, this project already influenced >$1 million in revenue. This project required interfacing across design and product on 5 different teams to build the feature set required.
Oversaw an effort to improve our on-call load. Reduced alerts by 5x through a combination of revamping our error handling, moving to more user facing, actionable UI components, and removing non-actionable alerts. All this while reducing the number of errors users saw on our page 3x.
Led an effort to improve page load times on our pages. Reduced page load times on all 5 of our owned pages by 2x while expanding the number of pages we monitored performance for from 3 -> 7.
Led a completeness and accuracy project that allowed our auditors to view source data for Vanta automated tests. This gave auditors more confidence in our tests, reducing the amount of back and forth comments and manual uploads required from customers. To date, this has been used by >2000 audits to streamline the evidence collection process.
