On a given day I could be:
* Speaking with students to get feedback on initial features
* Speaking to potential employers to explore revenue opportunities
* Building a workflow management system to provide students with jobs.
* Set technical cross-team direction at Bluecore for re-platforming of core services resulting in 5x cost reduction.
* Coached/mentored group of engineers across different disciplines at Bluecore (Frontend, Infrastructure, Application) to provide organization-wide impact. Examples:
* Created Kubernetes tools/training for Bluecore’s move to microservices..
* Created custom service framework to ease Kubernetes service adoption.
* Reduced code check-in validation times by 4x
* Re-structured frontend distribution resulting in 8x speed improvements
* Architected and led implementation of service framework used to sync first-party data with 3rd party platforms (e.g. Adwords); “Audience Syncs” is responsible for 10%+ of new revenue for Bluecore in 2017.
* At Amazon - created org’s first automated ETL process for extracting unstructured data from a distributed store (HDFS) and into user-defined structured tables (MySQL).
