Returned as a contractor after a couple months of travel in order to figure out my next steps.

Lead efforts to migrate in-house authentication to third-party platform Auth0, delivering many-to-many relations between users and organizations, a shift to JWT based authentication and authorization, and better internal tooling.

Worked in a fullstack capacity on the Core-experience and Government teams to help update and maintain the onboarding and qualification flows, their respective APIs, and the backend engines that powered them.

Worked closely with the Engineering Manager and Product on on feature architecture, sprint planning, backlog grooming, ticket and project prioritization, and bug triage.

Facilitated cross-functional alignment on current and upcoming projects, sharing context across team

As a Senior Engineer at Ditto, I worked to improve and support our core Virtual TryOn Services which consisted of an API, Create Server, and Rendering Server hosted on AWS. Specific examples of work include:

• Architected and project-managed HD image support for our Virtual TryOn Service.

• Investigated efficient AWS Elasticache node sizing and backups, leading to an estimated 40%

reduction in cost.

• Worked cross-functionally with our research team in order to integrate and performance test new

rendering packages, and update server scaling rules accordingly.

• Contributed to Agile and Scrum processes by performing backlog grooming; coordinating with

stakeholder to create project specifications, epics, and tickets; and by running stand-ups and sprint

retros.
