Staff Software Engineer at REBELLION DEFENSE who built a geospatial tracking frontend streaming over 10,000 objects per second.

United States
Message

At REBELLION DEFENSE, I architected and built the frontend of a high-performance geospatial tracking application using Vue.js, JavaScript, and OpenLayers. I also implemented Web Worker data processing that enabled streaming and playback of more than 10,000 objects per second at faster-than-real-time speeds.

I developed and maintained features for two additional applications supporting simulated battlespace missions and system vulnerability management. I worked with backend engineers, product managers, and clients to define requirements and deliver capabilities, and supported deployment into a U.S. Navy customer’s secure environment.

At F9 TEAMS, I contributed as an embedded contractor to the U.S. Air Force’s Kessel Run Identity Management platform. I developed and maintained features using React, TypeScript, and Java for authentication and user management across Air Force applications.

At SYNACOR, INC., I progressed through engineering and leadership roles, including Principal Engineer and Senior Engineering Manager. I guided telecommunications client deployments and frontend work, and managed an Agile team of four backend engineers integrating SiriusXM with Amazon Alexa and Google Home.
