Liquidnet provides commission management services to buy-side investment firms.

Bowery is a vertical farming company utilizing robotics, automation, and machine learning to optimize crop yields. I developed functionality to integrate a new harvesting machine at their flagship farm. Settings such as blade height and belt speed were sent to the harvester via MQTT based on the scanned crop. I wrote the back end logic in Elixir, and the front end screens in Vue and React. Bowery is a vertical farming company utilizing robotics, automation, and machine learning to optimize crop yields.

Maxar operates satellites that provide high resolution imagery for customers such as the U.S. government and Google Maps. I worked with product managers to translate business requirements into software specifications for managing satellite operations. I built the front ends in Angular using the redux pattern (NgRx) for state management. Real-time data was delivered via web sockets. I worked with the back end teams to develop the specs for the REST api services, which were implemented in Python and Java. Show less

Nov 2010 - Sep 2018
SumTotal provides HR software in the areas of talent management and learning. Upon hire, I served as technical lead for knowledge transfer during the acquisition of a competing product. The platform was C++, IIS web server, SQL Server, HTML, CSS, and javascript. I worked on the sustained engineering team and distinguished myself by posting the top productivity numbers for resolving defects each year at SumTotal. For large clients with performance issues I provided custom data ingestion solutions with SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS). The success of the talent management product helped to create enough value in the company for acquisition by Skillsoft. Upon this acquisition I worked on a project to integrate our suite of products into a single web portal. Show less

Aug 2006 - Sep 2010
Capsys is a modular construction firm. Buildings are broken up into modules that are manufactured in a factory in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The modules are then shipped to the construction site and placed into position by crane. I developed a web application to manage the manufacturing process and coordinate the activities of purchasing, production, QA, and shipping. I built the application using Ruby on Rails, Apache web server, and MySQL database. The application resolved several operational pain points by enhancing communication between departments. Through reporting tools, management gained real-time visibility into production which improved forecast and planning capability. Show less

I developed a SaaS product that provided investor relation content to the websites of publicly traded companies. The platform was SQL Server, ASP, and IIS web server. CCBN partnered with AOL. My role was developing technology to provide financial content to AOL’s web site. The challenge for this project was providing dynamic content at static page speeds. I met this challenge through creative use of XML and XSL, technologies that were new at the time. The success of this project helped to create sufficient value to allow CCBN to be acquired by Thomson Reuters. Show less

I performed field work and data analysis for environmental noise impact studies of airports, highways, and railways. I developed an application in Visual Basic to process and analyze acoustical data collected by LD-870 noise monitoring devices. I travelled across the United States, Europe, and Puerto Rico performing field measurements to document baseline noise levels. I developed noise models to assess the impact of proposed infrastructure projects. I performed field work and data analysis for environmental noise impact studies of airports, highways, and railways.
