• Projects: Ad campaign tool, Ad tracking microservices, Image-generation service, WP content sites.
• Designed and implemented a schema check to ensure payload quality using the JSON schema library. Significantly lowering instances of data-related failures in production and saving costs associated with failing/untracked ad placements (~$60,000/month)
• Utilized OpenSearch to develop a query tool that uses a secondary database of indexed fields, allowing our product/business team to search on all the fields of our entities.
• I worked with the architect to develop an internal error code system and added error handling to our services that would better surface issues on Datadog.
• Advocated for more rigorous testing, observability, and release practices in the codebase. Pushed to use feature flags more in the development/release cycle. Mentored teammates on best practices around unit testing. Established best practices around observability and error handling.
• Integrated Storybook into our project to document the functionality of front-end components.
