Enhanced Public & Edge Cloud offerings to enable on-demand compute in over 15 data centers globally.

Helped design, implement, and release multiple solutions to production such as:

• virtual firewall, which reduced costs by replacing hardware firewall devices in all data centers with software defined networking running on generic compute

• network storage, enabling self-service consumption of block, file, and object storage

• load balancer as a service, eliminating licensing costs associated with load balancer appliances

• core compute (virtual machine) provisioning platform improvements focusing on lowering operational expenses by increasing stability and reducing urgent incidents
