I am a professional software engineer with a passion for my craft. I strive to deliver the best experience for customers and other developers alike. I love clean, correct, and concise code, as well as efficiency and performance. I have been programming since age twelve, first on videogame mods, then in FTC Robotics in High School, through machine learning research opportunities in undergrad, and now as a professional.
Fullstack development in Java and JavaScript/TypeScript.

Fullstack development in Java, Python, and JavaScript/TypeScript on the AWS platform using AWS CDK.
Created a web app used to manage domain specific configurations consisting of a containerized (Docker) Java backend service on EC2/ECS combined with async Python and Java Lambdas and a TypeScript ReactJS frontend wireframed with Figma on Lambda/API Gateway.
Integrated ML models on Sagemaker into a Java service serving >10k TPS from Amazon sites worldwide, first streaming shadow test results to S3 via Kinesis with Glue and Athena for analysis, then incrementally released using an AppConfig flag with rollback on CloudWatch monitors.
Designed a complex single table NoSQL datamodel for DynamoDB.
On team using agile processes with daily standup, code review, and rotating oncall/pager duty.
Created CLI tools to augment internal services in GoLang, Python, and TypeScript.
Software Development for systems of systems, integrations, and tooling for STITCHES on DARPA's SoSITE program.
Created two interfaces for ADSB: one in Java with a REST API and an OTS receiver's UDP JSON stream; and one using the functional STITCHES DSL for the raw binary format.
Used swagger-codegen and a gradle plugin to generate an OpenAPI client for queryable REST APIs and for Kafka streams to provide live data.
Implemented CI/CD and containerization using Gitlab CI to build the STITCHES container and apps.
Created developer tooling for STITCHES including contextual command line completion using bash and python, a language server for the STITCHES DSL using Java, and an Eclipse Theia IDE combining using the language server and a REPL for testing.
VCS: git on Bitbucket and Gitlab: tasks: Jira.
REST microservice backend development for financial advising software using Open API in .NET Core and Framework.
Migrated monoliths to C# microservices and integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM.
VCS: git and Subversion on Bitbucket; tasks/tickets: Jira and Trello; tests: NUnit and Moq.

Included an audit table as well to track changes and enable PITR to any time, filled asyncronously from DDB streams
Led multiple engineers as project manager, created roadmap, directed junior engineers, approved designs of smaller components
Created wireframe of the React UI in Figma using a UX study done by a UX designer and internal React components
Implemented UI using ReactJS and internal component libraries
Designed and implemented a testing and rollout framework for the ML portion of an item classification service.
Designed distributed system, both serverless and managed infa, for testing natural language processing integration into an existing distributed system
Shadow testing within the service and streaming relevant data into storage for regression testing
Aggregation of test and input data from multiple data streams into a comprehensive dataset used for analysis and regression testing
Accuracy regression testing using stored data
Human-in-the-loop system of testing, retraining, and regression/shadow testing
Feature flags for pilot rollout and configurability
A/B testing of different strategies to aggregate results of different classifiers to acheive the highest accuracy
Service integration written in Java, other components written in Python, infrastructure written in TypeScript using AWS CDK
Resume site and artifact generation from JSON Resume spec written in TypeScript and Bash
Uses the json-resume specification to create a single source of truth for my resume.
Builds docker image in Gitlab CI used in the website deploy job
It creates a multiple web versions as well as PDF and DOCX versions.
Deploys to test environments when in a merge request for validation before merging to production
Optimized CI/CD pipeline to minimize build-time used and maximize utility
Deployed to gitlab pages and routed routed my personal domain to it including SSL verification.
Keep resume source private while the source code which deploys the site is public using a multi-project pipeline.
CI/CD Pipeline for a Link 16 System Interface
Created a unit test harness for our Link 16 System Interface using CppUnit.
Added Static Code Analysis with Cppcheck.
Created a docker image with the necessary dependencies to build and run the C++11 System Interface.
Developed a CI/CD pipeline in Lockheed's internal Gitlab using Gitlab CI and python scripts as well as the custom docker image.
Integration event among multiple countries, services, and contractors
Created an asynchronous system interface to the Unified Data Library REST API/Kafka services.
Extended swagger-codegen to normalize the spec and generate model transformations.
Created gradle plugins to streamline the build process, executing all code generation as part of the build process.
Created code generator leveraging the Open API spec as well as the kafka REST interface to generate kafka subscriptions within the system interface.
Created gradle plugins to integrate code generation and a basic CI/CD pipeline.
Stress tested UDL services to compare throughput and latency of STITCHES and Open API HTTP REST/Kafka Streams.
Console completion for STITCHES CLI tools
