I am part of the platform team mainly responsible for creating a directory service to be the single source of truth for the whole of Athenahealth. We are using Spark, Kafka, and Zookeeper to listen on changes on our main Oracle DB and then populate the changes to elasticsearch for more efficient access. We are also writing REST API's mainly using Swagger UI for another avenue of access.

Some things I have done

Wrote a python script to create suggestion documents from existing elasticsearch indexes and then index them into separated suggestion indices

Implemented and deployed SwaggerUI for Athenahealth’s general free text search api in Clojure

Wrote a Java class to quickly reload data into an elasticsearch index

Achieved a speed of about 60,000 documents in 50 sec

Wrote an internal web app to allow publishing of advertising content to the Epocrates app

• Java API with JAX-RS and Jersey on the backend and Angular frontend

• Used JSch to scp image files to remote server

• Used Hibernate bulk processing to optimize database writes, 100,000 new rows in 20 minutes

Wrote a web scrapper using XPath and Python to grab photos and videos off of Twitter based on a given hashtag

Implemented the frontend of a premium event page for the world cup, including modal video trailer and custom dropdown filter by country and match
