Contributed to the design and development of an internal platform supporting Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure workflows.
Use AI-assisted development workflows (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) as part of day-to-day engineering, accelerating design, implementation, refactoring, and test generation while maintaining review and quality standards.
Built and evolved developer-facing UI and backend services used to initiate and manage cluster lifecycle operations through automated CI/CD pipelines.
Integrated platform services with GitLab pipelines to orchestrate infrastructure provisioning, Kubernetes cluster creation, and access workflows.
Worked with Keycloak-based authentication to enable secure, role-aware access to platform capabilities.
Helped migrate and standardize the platform UI to the Carbon Design System, improving consistency, accessibility, and long-term maintainability.
Collaborated with platform, infrastructure, and security teams to refine workflows, improve reliability, and reduce operational friction.

Architected and built a modular, extensible, cross-platform electron application used across multiple projects within the organization as the core.(Built with TypeScript, Electron, ReactJS, and Node).
Developed an application used by the US Air Force to track and display aircraft within a 50-mile radius of Edwards Air Force base. The aircraft data is acquired from various radar sensors of which we ingest, analyze, calculate key metrics such as velocity, potential point of impact, and path, which is then displayed real time.
Reviewed internal component library and refactor where necessary to align with 12 factor development methodologies, focusing on modularity and performance

Radar Simulation (WSI&T Lab Simulation Software)
Owned development of the radar simulation component within a real-time hardware-in-the-loop environment, responsible for emulating radar behavior and responses.
Implemented logic to accept defined inputs and generate expected outputs in accordance with system specifications and real-time constraints.
Designed internal networking and data-handling components to support reliable interaction with other simulated and physical system channels.
Worked from ICDs, equipment specifications, and test plans to ensure accurate integration and system-level correctness.
Lab Software Tools (WSI&T)
Developed internal web-based tools to manage the lifecycle of program interface definitions and related configuration data.
Designed data storage solutions combining relational and non-relational models to support schema-driven and use-case-agnostic workflows.
Built tooling to dynamically validate and test OMS and message-based interfaces against provided schemas.
Supported engineers and test teams by improving visibility, consistency, and reliability of lab tooling used across simulation and integration workflows.
Technologies: C++, networking protocols (UDP/TCP), NITF, OMS, hardware-in-the-loop simulation, MongoDB, JavaScript, Node.js
