I started at Transport4 as a senior full stack engineer building applications in Typescript, Node.js, and Angular. I later transitioned to platform engineering, helping to build up the platform engineering team from the ground up to manage our distributed cloud infrastructure on AWS, building out developer tooling — infrastructure as code tools using CloudFormation, Terraform, and Pulumi, developer-facing services for incident management, database migrations, telemetry and so on, and helping individual teams get ownership and observability of their services from local development to production.

At Spreetail I worked on a distributed Node.js/Typescript/React microservice and microfrontend-based application targeted at the vendors we partnered with.

Later I led frontend engineering on a team that built internal-facing tools designed to collect key datapoints from across the organization and provide users with the ability to access, query, and take action on that data.

Kepler is a company that I helped build from scratch over a couple of years. I worked from the beginning with the other members of the company to determine how and what to build, manage project timelines and expectations, create UI designs for our products, and hire and coordinate with our other developers. The web development stack I worked with every day included React, Typescript, Node.js, Python and the Django framework, Go, Docker, Google Cloud Platform, and PostgreSQL.

At Roman Roads Media, I was responsible for developing and maintaining our web platform, using a legacy Wordpress + Woocommerce site, along with many new features using React, Node.js, Python, and MySQL. I maintained pipelines on Gitlab, our server infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform and Digital Ocean, and various supporting systems, from internal administrative databases and scripts. I worked directly with the company owners to plan and execute new features and development.
