Led the development of a flagship AI-powered healthcare platform, transforming a disorganized initiative into a functional product. Designed and built an Elixir-based system to process medical prior authorizations, leveraging LLMs to provide approval probabilities and guideline matches—delivering on critical deadlines that secured key client buy-in.

Developed a scalable reprocessing system for AI validation using RabbitMQ Streams, enabling prior authorizations to be rerun as AI models improved. This system established a foundation for continuous learning and refinement of AI decision-making models.

Built a client-ready management and review portal using Phoenix LiveView and JavaScript, providing medical professionals with real-time tracking of processed authorizations. This facilitated AI model feedback loops and improved system transparency.

Enhanced security in the open-source Azurex library, implementing managed identity authentication, a more secure alternative to the existing authentication method.

Played a pivotal role in development, with management prioritizing my involvement in pair programming sessions focused on critical code paths. This approach resulted in contributing to approximately 41% of the codebase.

Instrumental in securing a seed round of over $5M in funding through the development of robust backend systems, demonstrating the viability and potential of the product to investors.

Independently spearheaded the implementation of critical features including user authentication, automatic PDF and email generation, seamless user bank account access, and secure ACH payment transfers, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.

Led the development of a high-performance micro-service leveraging Elixir to track and stream data pertaining to over 10K stocks and their option chains, ensuring real-time data availability and accuracy for financial operations.

Expanded feature sets of three critical Elixir open-source libraries to align with company goals

Organized and planned features between CEO and Head of Design which lead to acquiring angel investments totaling up to $750,000 and growing its user base by 400%

Managed and mentored 3 developers, to insure efforts were meeting business goals

Interviewed 20+ potential new hires to expand the team

Contributed to 35% of code-base by implementing core social media features like posting and/or viewing images, videos, text, polls, and stock charts on a shared feed

Independently created an animated SVG-based chart in app to observe stock price change information

Implemented a video editing feature to allow users to stitch videos, add text, add/or chats to user created videos
