Large amounts of content need to be added to the data backbone that Wolfram Alpha uses, on a regular basis. My projects are focused on developing systems that help the content curators' workflow keep pace with the ever increasing demand.

Jun 2006 - Aug 2009
Starting in the Software Technology division, writing Mathematica code for converters for scientific data file formats - soon I was added to the Special Projects team headed by Stephen Wolfram. With this team I designed and developed the early load-on-demand curated data delivery technology. This system was then connected to the larger Wolfram Alpha project, which I continued to develop for.
