      • Combined two legacy command and control products into one single modernized software stack (C, Python, Django, PostgreSQL). Emulated a full terminal in the browser for a real-time user experience (JavaScript, Backbone). Customers provided incredibly positive feedback, citing new extension and customization options of middleware/plugins for integrating other products. • Directed a team of four to build these products, coordinating with other teams (over Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, Git) to ensure smooth integration and no loss of functionality. Streamlined the Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery pipeline (Jenkins, Vagrant) to aid other teams in integrating and testing against this software, improving the ramp-up time from days into hours. • Developed a Python web service and JavaScript interface for collecting malware analysis and incident response data from C++ endpoint security products using Protobufs. Spearheaded a migration from the proof-of-concept (Flask, MongoDB) to production implementation (Django, PostgreSQL), reducing database server storage/RAM usage by 80%, and end-user page load times by 50%. • Built flexible engine allowing each individual customer to generate filtering rules for a particular network to weed-out false positives. Heuristic-based static and runtime analysis of suspicious behavior was able to detect and alert on every piece of malware tested against in the wild. Overhauled the filtering engine from operating primarily in the Python runtime to instead be a chain of SQL procedures, improving runtime (and server capacity) by two orders of magnitude. Show less

      • Engineered full-stack (PHP, MySQL, jQuery) web sites for clients, from concept to delivery, in tight six week deadlines. This included company-internal projects for Discover Card and Whirlpool Corporation. These projects delivered on time and under budget, prompting positive feedback from customers. • Created a browser-based single page application for a new Document Management Solution, written in PHP and performing metadata storage in MySQL. Designed a JavaScript and CSS user interface to mimic the look and feel of the native Operating System for navigating the virtual file system and for performing full-text search (via Tesseract OCR) in sub-one-second response times.
