Software Engineer, Site Reliability

NS8 Inc

June 2020 - September 2020
As part of the SRE team, I was responsible for handling numerous parts of our system. I ran some of our weekly deployments, helped manage our AWS resources via terraform, responded to incidents, implemented logging and alerting, handled security vulnerabilities, and performed many other SRE duties. When I joined the company, we had a very basic implementation of Honeycomb that was not fully setup. There were numerous incomplete traces, unnecessary paging, and diagnosing issues were cumbersome to say the least. My first set of responsibilities involved improving our logging to have complete and accurate tracing as well as add additional metrics. I also documented our implementation for future engineers to utilize. After accomplishing this, I moved on to managing IAM roles using terraform to create new groups, cross account roles, and assign users. While working at NS8, I also identified and remedied multiple security risks ranging from R1 to R3. Departed for no reason other than internal company legal issues that led to the dissolution of the company.

Labor Saver Solutions

Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer

May 2018 - April 2020
I started my own company as the sole software and hardware engineer. I developed and my partner sold technology devices and services. Our products were wireless RF call buttons and temperature sensors, online party booking software, and virtual reality stations. We provided backend web apps that allowed for analysis of data as well as setup of email/texting notifications and reports based on user preferences. As the sole technology provider, I have experience developing database schemas, restful APIs, micro-controller processes, multi-threaded hub controller units, front-end user experiences, processing payments, as well as performing many other activities to create a fully developed product. I have designed PCB schematics using Eagle CAD and worked with foreign manufacturers to acquire parts. I have also worked with external services such as SendGrid, Twilio, and Google Cloud to provide an all-encompassing service.
