Principle Associate Software Engineer - Credit Card

• Built out a multi-item and multi-vendor marketplace checkout system alongside single item "Buy it Now"
• Created a self-serve onboarding flow that allowed vendors to sign contracts within a Docusign view
• Developed Party Purchase: An ability to secure deeper discounts for consumers when a certain number purchased a product. This was built upon an existing incentives engine for future compatibility.
• Added Review Commissions: A new asynchronous commission revenue stream for creators when users buy a product from their affiliate link.

Senior Software Engineer

• Early engineer at a financial tech startup shortly after its acquisition by Capital One. Contributed to its well managed initiative as it scaled to rebrand to Capital One Investing.
• Developed suite of functions to interface with Apex. This brought Apex related development and testing tasks from several days to minutes.

Senior Associate Software Engineer - Capital One Investing

• Organized working sessions which guided standards for development and defined previously nonexistent two year technical vision.
• Proposed migration to serverless architecture, developed 6 month phased migration plan, and successfully migrated team to a completely serverless architecture built with React, TypeScript Express microservices, and DynamoDB. Effort included breaking express functions into multiple services, removing legacy business logic to create a more data-driven UI, migrating from PostgreSQL to DynamoDB to support a document-based data approach, and redesigning team’s RESTful API to follow REST best practices and enable better cross-team data collaboration.
• Modernized our CI/CD pipeline which decreased deployment and recovery times between regions from 5+ hours to 30 minutes. Increased unit test coverage from 5% to 80%, implemented code cleanliness practices such as SonarQube and linting, enabled automated security scans that performed static application / software application analysis and decreased reported errors by 50% in less than one year.
• Individually owned a windows server application that was used by 5,000+ users. Ownership included security patches, ami rehydrations, addressing support tickets and eventually decommissioning the tool which saved the business up to $80,000 a year.
• Implemented security best practices while meeting sporadic short deadlines when the enterprise was making pushes for higher security due to security events. Best practices include leveraging bastions as a proxy to RDS, proper secret management with Hashicorp Vault, and using a reverse proxy to properly orchestrate secure micro-service requests.
• My team revamped our existing platform that contained several tools while completely maintaining a geo-spatial tool (Arcgis), a legacy JSP web app, a legacy windows web app, a scheduling tool (Deputy), and ticketing application (Deskpro). For the majority of my position we completely owned 5 tools with 3 developers.

• Created a multi-stage AWS environment built upon the Amazon Amplify / Appsync framework. This framework connected to dev / production postgres Aurora databases. The Amplify api was a graphql typescript implementation that were bound to VTL request and resolver mappings.
• The client-side application was built upon the Amplify React Framework. This connected to a Cognito based AWS_IAM authentication flow. Google Analytics was configured to monitor events and track user interactions between pages. Mapbox provided a map based visual representation for user trip data.
