I was on a three-person engineering team at Karlani that helped mature products in their
investment portfolio. I spent most of my time here at a web and mobile advertising agency
migrating existing self-managed SQL databases to AWS RDS instances and PHP-backed HTML
admin portals to modern React applications backed by Java APIs. This all ran on easily
deployable Docker containers hosted on AWS EC2 instances. The last year of employment
was spent getting a new parenting mobile app project off the ground. It was built with React
Native and backed by GraphQL APIs and AWS DynamoDB.
