Primarily focused on optimizing performance and owning large necessary change sets to completion both individually and leading a team. Continuously looked toward by leadership to take on these level of tasks

Leveraged S3, Cloudflare, and GraphQL to integrate video and document support into React Native apps by creating native modules in Android and iOS using the new Turbo Module/Fabric architecture

Maintained the team's ability to continue parallel development while addressing largely avoided tech debt items like upgrades of React Native, React Navigation (v4 -> v6, requiring re-architecture), TypeScript, and many other dependencies to improve tooling, build times, quality of life for developers, and performance of the app as well as reducing flakiness within Jest and Appium tests

Introduced numerous linting rules to promote coding best practices, improve React Native mobile app performance, and reduce redundant comments on pull requests to promote a focus on constructive/useful feedback on actual implementation

Contributed to open source react-native libraries throughout development efforts

Mentored and guided other engineers to help them display their abilities and achieve goals (ex: earning

Worked directly with clients (CTO and engineers) to completely develop their single app 3-platform (iOS, Android, and Web via Expo on top of React Native) experience for their clients with full CI/CD with Github Actions, environmental configurations, Cypress E2Es, 100% jest unit test code coverage, error reporting, monitoring, etc

Engaged with strategic clients to expand PaaS functionality, extensibility, and ease-of-use of AWS Lambda APIs such as Auth and cut costs by $X0,000's/year and improve developer experience by optimizing builds from minutes to seconds through improved tooling utilization such as esbuild

Improved React Native code base quality and structure by replacing Redux + RXJS + Class components + Javascript with Context/Hooks + Functional components + TypeScript in a singlehanded effort

Implemented CI/CD via GitHub Actions to publish React Native iOS and Android builds for QA through Firebase App Distribution to limit regression issues on code merges due to the decreased iteration time between builds and QA tests

Spearheaded movement from minimal project management processes to weekly builds within sprints

Leveraged first hand implementation knowledge as an internal user of Stream React Native SDK to

Closed over 50% of issues (bugs/enhancement/new feature requests) on the stream-chat-react-native

Created various React Native demo apps for sales to show clients the capabilities of the SDK

Led internal efforts to convert multiple JavaScript SDKs to the modern era with TypeScript and on the

Revamped the out-of-the-box quality of the stream-chat-react-native SDK components to facilitate max FPS output while significantly improving developer experience by creating support for 100% component customization

Contributed to numerous open source react-native libraries used throughout development efforts

Managed a team of 4 junior and mid-level developers through the React Native development process and teaching them best practice through the implementation of E2E Appium tests, 100% jest unit test code coverage, and automated deployments with monitoring via Sentry

Expertise building Kubernetes based application environments. Object-level understanding of Kubernetes troubleshooting approaches and patterns to enable a faster fix turnaround time

Supported clients with implementation and utilization of open source solutions via showcasing GitHub repositories spanning: Docker containers, CI/CD, integration testing, unit testing, code static analysis, data science, AI (artificial intelligence), message queues, clustering, high availability

Helped customers architect, build, and support cost saving DevOps artifact pipelines with a focus on scalability to reduce future upkeep. Believer in enabling teams by providing continuous delivery solutions natively supported by major COTS CI/CD product SaaS offerings (Jenkins/OWASP/CloudBees/JFrog/Artifactory/X-RAY)

Mentored and led developers on client projects with NodeJS, React Native, and .NET Core APIs deployed utilizing Kubernetes through AWS EKS

Assessment-driven DevOps lead focusing on tactical decisions to enable IT departments to build

Proven track record of building and supporting cloud native solutions that can deploy to AWS, OpenStack (multiple vendors), and on-premise environments (hybrid deployments)

Deep technical expertise troubleshooting large applications running on various Linux distributions

Evangelized DevOps practices within key accounts focusing on design patterns that enable teams agile and efficient execution with mature auditing, traceability, and faster builds within secure, multi-tenant environments

Expertise architecting distributed systems and secured REST service layers (OAuth 2.0/jwt/IDP)

Successfully delivered on numerous DevOps engagements and recommended for multiple internal awards

Mentored and led developers on client projects with NodeJS and React Native
