● Engineering leadership:

• Collaborated with stakeholders to define the product and technical roadmaps.oversaw Cureus software

development cycle, scoped out epics and features to create engineering work streams and plans.

• Developed an engineering culture around documentation, code reviews, testing, and quantifying successes.

• Led 2 engineers in building features and coached them on producing robust and quality work.

• Integrated multiple 3rd party services including Stripe, Sendgrid, Amplitude, and Google Analytics.

• Upgraded core components of Cureus’s technology stacks end to end, including Ruby, Rails, Webpacker, React and various dependencies.

● Performance focused:

o Profiled codebase to identify and eliminate bottlenecks, reducing timeouts and page load time.

o Migrated all services from Heroku to AWS, reducing infrastructure operating costs by 50%.

o Created a new API server for editorial and business data requests to alleviate load from the main

servers.

● Architecture and software design:

o Designed and implemented the editorial queue management system to enforce priority policies, reduce

inefficiencies, and improve reporting and metrics.

o Built a system to parse reference metadata to auto-correct citation data inputted by the author.

o Rebuilt article snapshot generation process to guarantee content was identical with original submission

to PubMedCentral, and subsequently identified and resolved existing disparities.

o Redesigned publication guides with new searching and highlighting capabilities through Elasticsearch,

reducing the time spent on support tickets related to the publication process.

o Built an analytics dashboard with reporting tools to track email marketing performance, in progress

publications, and editor activity and performance.

o Designed an internal email preferences system to give users more control over what emails they

receive, including the ability to opt into new automated emails.

● Doubled automatic payroll setup success rates by designing and implementing a TF-IDF engine to associate payroll transactions with an employer.

● Designed and implemented an overdraft refund system to detect, establish cause, and automatically refund overdraft fees caused by errors in our system or faults by banks.

● Improved scalability by migrating database from SQL Server to MySql to integrate with Amazon Aurora, as well as implementing a data access layer to determine whether to read from the master or a replica at runtime to reduce the need for waits (50ms per query).

● Operating as a team lead for the Payroll and Account Verification teams.

● Co-lead a team of contractors to create a testing framework and improve our test suite

Product Reliability Testing

• Performed simulated surgical uses on da Vinci Surgical System EndoWrist instruments to verify and validate design specifications.

• Analyzed and presented time-series data using R in order to demonstrate observable trends that lead to instrument failure.

• Wrote a Matlab script to collect and plot motor position and torque data for EndoWrist instruments to verify range of motion limits
