• Piloted a “vertical ownership” full-stack model for checkout, owning feature slices end-to-end from the React/Next.js UI through the Java/Spring Boot BFF server; scaled adoption by authoring an onboarding playbook and mentoring engineers to ship the same way

• Built internal tooling to accelerate developer velocity on our React/Next.js stack, including a widely used internal feature-flag UI & SDK, integrated accessibility checks and performance profiling, and built an internal mock/replay tool powered by Mock Service Worker (MSW) to reproduce real-world flows

• Built an internal agentic AI incident triage app to improve metrics such as MTTR; demoed to executive leadership and pursued broader rollout

• Shipped checkout improvements in 2025, including new features that delivered measurable conversion lifts

• Tech lead for next-gen Next.js checkout rewrite, driving architecture decisions for performance, personalization, and reliability

• Reduced first-page load latency from 6s+ to ~3s by moving to server-side processing + streaming, guided by observability metrics

• Built and owned revenue-critical web + BFF servers handling millions of requests for checkout flows

• Led authentication integration and private endpoint protection (sessions, private routes), strengthening security posture and UX

• Built reusable UI primitives with Tailwind + shadcn/ui, improving consistency and delivery speed across the team

• Mentored engineers and raised the bar on code quality (reviews, testing, release readiness)

• Built a Node.js SDK integrating third-party vendors for our media distribution pipeline, cutting integration time from months to ~2 weeks

• Built scalable event-driven services processing thousands of events/day (DDD, idempotent handlers, DLQs, replay)

• Designed, built, and maintained GraphQL + REST APIs (OpenAPI), including schema governance and versioning

• Built reusable React micro-frontend widgets adopted by multiple teams, improving media operations velocity

• Provisioned and automated AWS infrastructure with CDK/Serverless; monitoring + alerting via CloudWatch and Elasticsearch

• Founding engineer who shipped core program workflows (applications, mentor matching, market tests) supporting founders through mentorship and funding prep

• Built a React.js frontend (Redux) to deliver reactive, user-friendly interfaces

• Built backend services with Django REST Framework (Python), delivering features end-to-end from spec to production

• Integrated observability with Sentry, improving reliability and performance monitoring

• Partnered with product + design to deliver a cohesive, user-centric platform; maintained quality via unit tests and code reviews

• Built frontend features with React.js, React-Redux, and Redux-Saga

• Integrated OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code + PKCE flows, improving sign-in security and compliance

• Built backend services with Node.js on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
