Senior Software Engineer, Biamp Mar 2023 – Jan 2025

● Led backend development of the room-control service for the Modena Max Connect Core Unit, managing system state and broadcasting real-time updates; reduced control latency by 75% and ensured sub-100ms response times

(TypeScript, Node.js, Socket.IO, Linux).

● Spearheaded backend features enabling a successful product launch, transforming meeting spaces into BYOM-ready environments; improved system readiness by 40%.

● Redesigned and implemented UI for the Primary Display, Settings App, and Client Tablet, enhancing responsiveness across display types (TypeScript, React, React Native, Electron).

● Modernized Max Connect web and desktop apps, achieving 30% load time reduction and full feature parity across platforms.

Senior Software Engineer, Nike Jun 2022 – Jan 2023

● Built a serverless stock event pipeline ingesting Kafka sink events into SQS and triggering Step Functions; reduced processing time by 60% and scaled to 100K+ events/min (TypeScript, Kafka, SQS, Lambda, Step Functions).

● Orchestrated enrichment flows with Lambda functions to annotate stock events with SKU, size, and color metadata; supported sub-second latency with auto-scaling.

● Provisioned multi-region AWS infrastructure (VPC, ECS, Aurora, serverless stack) using Terraform for consistent, fault-tolerant deployments.

● Built Jenkins CI/CD pipelines for backend and serverless services, enabling 4 faster releases and zero-downtime deployments via Docker-based testing and automated Terraform execution.

● Created Glue ETL pipelines to transform shoe inventory data from S3 and POS systems for real-time visibility (AWS Glue, PySpark, Python).

● Published curated data to Redshift and flagged anomalies via PySpark transformations; enabled accurate downstream analytics.

● Operated production systems using Splunk, SignalFx, and New Relic; investigated and resolved high-priority incidents. Senior Software Engineer, Airspace Sep 2019 – Jun 2022

● Designed and maintained backend systems for Shipping & Tracking of critical packages (e.g., transplant organs); ensured stability at scale (Rails, Go, Postgres, Redis).

● Integrated Twilio into backend services for real-time driver notifications and last-mile coordination; reduced communication latency by 50%.

● Migrated infrastructure to GCP and Kubernetes, managing deployment automation with Terraform and CircleCI.

● Containerized and instrumented backend services; enabled observability through distributed tracing and structured logging (Go, Ruby).

● Consolidated observability stack into Datadog; authored dashboards and alerting systems that reduced MTTR significantly.

● Extended Sidekiq instrumentation in Ruby to support correlated trace/span IDs, improving distributed trace fidelity.

● Automated provisioning of monitoring integrations (Datadog Operator, Redis, Postgres, Puma) within Kubernetes.

● Enabled log-to-metric pipelines and anomaly detection triggers; maintained production reliability via incident response. Senior Software Engineer, Nike Jan 2016 – Sep 2019

● Developed backend services and frontend components for Demand Planning tools managing size curves and plug data; improved inventory allocation accuracy (Java, Spring, TypeScript, React, ECS, Postgres, Kafka).

● Built Order Capture pipelines and services ingesting partner store orders, leveraging REST APIs, event-driven logic, and serverless orchestration (Kotlin, Lambda, Step Functions, SQS, SNS).

● Engineered streaming and batch data pipelines using Python, Kafka, Airflow, and EMR; enabled hybrid data flows across Aurora, MySQL, and DynamoDB.

● LDeveloped microservices supporting Nike Customization using reactive Spring Boot architecture and DynamoDB

(Java, ECS).

● Automated Jenkins and CircleCI pipelines for consistent build, test, and deployment across staging and production.

● Diagnosed backend issues across distributed systems using New Relic, CloudWatch, Splunk, and SignalFx. Software Engineer, S Cubed (Consultancy)Jan 2003 – Jan 2016

● Built Sparq’s Combine app and athlete performance testing API (Java, Spring, Ruby on Rails, AWS).

● Developed CloudOps control panel to manage app stacks and provision AWS infrastructure (Java, Rails, PHP, EC2, RDS).

● Built TheWidge, a domain management platform with dynamic DNS and billing tools (Java, Spring, MySQL, AWS).

● Ported Tattoo Media’s ad engine from PHP to a C-based Apache module, improving performance 5 (Apache, C, PHP, MySQL).

● Implemented UXComm’s IPMI control-plane API for real-time server telemetry and management (Java, UDP).

● Designed and built an enterprise-grade asset repository with audit logging and versioning (Java, Spring, Hibernate). SKILLS
