EXPERIENCE

SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER

American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)

Houston, TX

August 2024 - Present

Led modernization of multiple large-scale legacy enterprise platforms, replacing tightly coupled Oracle/Maximo systems with cloud-native React + Node.js/GraphQL + MongoDB architectures.

Designed and maintained backend services and APIs for time-sensitive enterprise workflows (timecard processing, invoice request generation, survey fee calculation), with strict requirements around correctness, authorization, and auditability.

Re-architected critical data-access paths, improving user lookup and access-evaluation performance by

~60%.

Defined data models, access boundaries, and authorization logic to support multi-role enterprise users, balancing security, flexibility, and long-term maintainability.

Built event-driven systems for onboarding, access updates, reporting, and audit trails using asynchronous messaging with retries, dead-letter handling, and correlation IDs.

Secure Reporting Platform: Designed backend services generating large reports from operational datasets and exposing them via short-lived, permission-scoped download links; optimized memory usage using streaming and asynchronous processing.

Identity & Onboarding Systems: Designed secure token-based onboarding pipelines with automated provisioning rules, reducing onboarding time from hours to minutes while improving auditability.

Large-Scale Document Platform (Sole Engineer): Modernized a legacy system managing millions of sensitive files; designed ingestion pipelines, metadata models, and high-selectivity search APIs; led end- to-end migration of petabytes of data to cloud object storage across multiple environments.

SOFTWARE ENGINEER

General Motors (GM)

Austin, TX

August 2020 - July 2024

Built and owned mobile product features backed by distributed backend services for global automotive platforms used by millions of customers, operating under unreliable network and device constraints.

Designed Digital Key provisioning systems coordinating secure backend authorization, device pairing, and mobile state management, with a focus on correctness across retries, reconnects, and partial failures.

Developed real-time vehicle health and diagnostics services, integrating multiple backend data sources and gracefully handling partial failures and degraded states.

Built remote command execution workflows with polling, retries, and state reconciliation to ensure consistency between backend systems and vehicle/mobile state.

Improved system reliability and performance through optimized state management and native module integrations.

SOFTWARE ENGINEER

EOG Resources

Houston, TX

July 2019 - July 2020

Built a React Native–based iPad application backed by distributed backend workflows to support operational check-in/out at oil rigs, including offline operation and eventual consistency.

Designed backend-integrated audit trails and traceability mechanisms to improve billing accuracy and operational visibility across systems.

Developed a dynamic form system combining reusable UI components with backend-driven validation and schema enforcement.

Built a Kotlin-based SDK enabling the form engine to be embedded across multiple internal applications, reducing duplicated logic and improving consistency.

SOFTWARE ENGINEER

American Bureau of Shipping (ABS)

Spring, TX

January 2017 - July 2019

Migrated access-management and integration systems from monolithic Oracle-based implementations to cloud-hosted services.

Built and maintained hybrid mobile and web applications tightly integrated with backend services, supporting operational workflows under connectivity constraints.

Designed API-based integrations with clear contracts and versioning, enabling safer downstream consumption.

Built hybrid mobile applications optimized for low-connectivity environments.

Implemented feature-flag-based rollouts to safely deploy changes to production systems.
