• Led the effort for the RocketDocument API design. This included cross team discussion and consensus building, drafting the High-Level System Design, review & approval, drafting component specifications, implementation and testing within an Agile context, infrastructure considerations, and finally launching. It was a laborious iterative process that ultimately resulted in a great product.

• Kept High-level system designs up to date for existing Document team products.

• Worked to develop practices to protect the Docs team engineering pipeline.

• Built trust between stakeholders, Engineering and Docs team for our delivery dates.

• Mentored peers on product technical knowledge, problem solving approaches, and ways to maximize team thruput.

• Launched multiple API products in the Kubernetes CICD paradigm.

• Participated in sprint planning, grooming and goal setting.

• Wrote Java and Scala code with tests that tested the requirements, applying the Test-Driven-Development approach.

• Guided product development efforts towards optimal, efficient research-backed solutions.

• Wrote efficient, descriptive, factorable backend software to meet product requirements.

• Designed unit test cases, bringing design ideas in touch with existing architecture, identifying issues early and leading to coherent design and implementation.

• Designed and implemented a core Infrastructure API, an authoritative data repository having: 1) MySQL DB, Spring MVC-based Secure REST API, and Spring MVC-based infrastructure tools.

• Designed Resource Allocation Tool in Java, which significantly reduced complexity and variance from production for web application provisioning. Reduced time cost of a highly repetitive task from 6hr to 5m.

• Developed libraries for representing environment data as objects. This allowed for standardization and reuse of code for other tools.

• Using above libraries designed and maintained infrastructure code for web provisioning, application server provisioning and dynamic production documentation service. This extended the capability of the team to rapidly provision and deploy code to the production environment, as well as get real-time information about any application instance. This was a big time savings to the company.

• Extensive knowledge supporting three-tier Java web applications using Apache, Tomcat/Resin/Glassfish and Oracle.

• Debugged Java source-code in review/production by using Remote, LOG4J, and by adding debug code to source.

• Designed, planned and executed Jenkins migration to AWS, enabling Java application builds to function in the cloud on a large scale. This also required in-depth Java expertise and debugging skills.
