Software engineer at Meta who owned end-to-end features and improved CI/CD deploy speed by about 20%.

At Meta, I owned parts of consumer-facing services and internal platforms, taking features from scoping and implementation through rollout and follow-up fixes. I also set up CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code for the team's DevOps workflow, making deploys about 20% faster.

At Amazon Web Services (AWS), I built and maintained services and internal tools for multi-tenant cloud services. I worked on containerized deployments with Docker and Kubernetes, modernized legacy services, and delivered full-stack features backed by Java services and REST APIs.

As a Sr. Enterprise Engineer at Facebook, I designed and supported functionality for internal HR, finance, and IT systems. I built backend services and REST APIs, and contributed to data migration and re-platforming work.

Earlier at Amazon, I maintained customer-facing and fulfillment services and shipped product capabilities. My experience also includes Python firmware validation at Tesla and hardware and software R&D support at KeySight Technologies - Nanoscale Sciences Division.
