Software Engineer, Dec 2021 - Present

At EXPANSIA Group, Inc., I'm architecting a full-stack Big Data web solution to select, analyze, and track 3D-printed parts for the Department of Defense. While working there, I've improved performance of data ingest pipeline by 5x, refactored technical debt out of a legacy web app into a modern application, and created an internal automation tool.

I've successfully worked on multiple teams using Agile methodologies, participated in code reviews, and reached out to others when I got stuck. I've built and modified pages and components referencing design mockups, and implemented new backend microservices to support new features. I delivered last-minute features to meet a deadline, resulting in a very well received demo to the client.

I've gained further experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and Python, tools like Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, and Azure, and philosophies like microservices and cloud computing. I've also worked with SQL, GraphQL, Protobuf, gRPC, and Vue.js. I'm responsible for several major refactors of growing projects, and initiated the effort to add much-needed unit testing to the frontend codebase.
