At Ezoic, I worked as part of a fully remote team to design and implement optimizations to the front and back-end systems that support the product platform. In addition, I was selected to design and build internal tools and dashboards using my skills in full-stack development and eye for pleasing UI/UX experiences when managing large datasets. Common tools that I used at Ezoic include Go, JavaScript, Node.js, Vue, PHP, AWS, Docker. SQL, Redshift, Linux/Bash, and OpenAI among others. Some of my accomplishments during my time at Ezoic include:
Implemented strategic optimizations and enhancements into large-scale ad system handling 10-100 million web interactions daily
Within two months, I designed a new interactive A/B testing data visualization interface, streamlining data monitoring. This project won Ezoic’s internal “Hackasaurus” award for its high-quality design.
Quickly gained deep understanding of code base. Engineered high-stakes modifications and complete module rewrites that pushed into production without issue
Developed proficiency with leveraging AI tools to enhance my skills and enable rapid development
Effectively collaborated with a fully remote team, efficiently coding intricate systems, and proving flexibility and agility in a startup environment
Implemented high-rate data tracking using Kinesis that stores and tracks billions of data points

This role at KPBSD was focused on workflow optimization and student data management. I quickly outgrew this position, as I was working on advanced programming systems and had responsibilities well above my title before I was promoted to the senior position of Programmer/Analyst. Tools I used in this position include JavaScript, PHP, SQL, jQuery, HTML, and CSS. Some of my responsibilities in the Data Processing Programmer position included:
Designed and implemented front and back-end modifications to SIS applications
