McLean, VA
- Architected a high-throughput, event-driven card transaction processing system (Go, Restate, Lambda, Kafka) with 15-min RTO/RPO via idempotent processing and active-active design.
- Built preapproval and eligibility flows (React, Angular) for a small-business credit card platform serving millions of applicants — contributing $60M annualized value and an 18% conversion lift.
- Self-initiated a full-stack team capacity dashboard (Svelte 5, Go, AWS CDK/Lambda/S3), delivered solo in 4 days versus a 6–8 week estimate.
- Surfaced a QA/PROD schema-versioning defect on the org’s event-streaming platform; led cross-team alignment and built Recadero — a Go CLI with auto-resolution, schema validation, and pre-commit hooks — adopted across teams, driving the legacy library to end-of-life org-wide.
- Led a cross-team initiative on AI-assisted development: built a multi-agent rubric evaluation framework assessing 13 internal tools, and shipped a suite of AI-augmented dev tools (automated code review, Jira automation) recovering ~140 engineering hours/year.
- Identified and resolved an Elm functional test-suite bottleneck, cutting local and CI/CD time by 50% (400s→200s) and saving 150+ engineering hours/month across 30+ engineers.
