2021 — Now

Implemented local system setup using docker-compose. This brought developer onboarding time down from days/weeks to hours. It also enabled the entire system (several services, application backends, and shared services e.g., RabbitMq) to run locally, which allowed for more thorough testing.

Supported Python Django codebases

Developed new microservices using Java Spring Boot

Implemented the application of the "Strangler Pattern" for incrementally carving out functionality from the monolith into microservices. This implementation allows for migration at the individual endpoint level, with no disruption to the user experience.

Working with HL7 FHIR resources and APIs, primarily using the Java HAPI FHIR Client and associated library

Building dynamic Typescript React components

Tuned kafka cluster configurations across many topics/producers/consumers to optimize throughput based on different topic/message/service usage.

Led adoption and implementation of graphql across microservices

Data Layer: SQL, MongoDb, OSIPI, AWS S3

Some of my favorite projects have been focused on the expansion of our system into AWS. Over the past year I have lead the design and implementation of 10+ microservices or lambdas. Previously our application backend was of the monolithic style. The expansion into AWS has enabled decoupled services that have been faster to develop, easier to maintain, and much better performance. In one project in particular there a calculation engine that ran every 24 hours, the problem was it was starting to take 24 hours+ for the service to run. We broke the engine into three AWS Lambdas connected by AWS SQS Queues. The same calculations now run every hour on the hour and take about 5 minutes to process!
