Principal Software Engineer

Technical Lead and Architect for ongoing Configuration Audit project for large
Telecom. The application is built using Python within Django framework.  Project follows Agile
methodology including acceptance demonstrations.

Java/Python Principal Engineer

Subject Matter Expert for the highly intricate java-based Service Metrics Engine microservice
(SMEu), used for SNMP polling. I rapidly ramped up on Ansible to support my DevOps
responsibilities used in the provisioning of virtualized metric collection nodes for a large cloudservices
provider. Required familiarizing myself with ELK (Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana).

The development environment was Mac OS X with the majority of coding done in Java and
Python. The position required intimate knowledge of the business domain with the goals of
improving current methodologies, automating the eCommerce pipeline and building a
technology infrastructure for future expansion and deployment onto AWS. The processes I built
accelerated the ability to push out more product listings and enabled the expansion into dropshipping.  I used Selenium and web scraping tools (beautfulsoup) to manage downloads.
These accomplishments directly led to over a 40% increase in revenue.

Independent Contractor

Subject Matter Expert for IPFIX (Internet Protocol Flow Information Export) and IPFIX
Collector. IPFIX Collector is a multi-threaded java application utilizing Netty to

I've used Java at multiple companies including leveraging the concurrency package for multi-threaded applications.

I used Postgres on a near daily basis including building complex queries.

I've always been especially adept at diagnosing and solving challenging issues/bugs.  At multiple companies, I was able to expediently figure out the root cause of perplexing bugs when other engineers couldn't.

I started my career supporting a database product and have used a wide range of databases since.  I'm well versed in SQL and use it on a daily basis.  I've worked with all facets from schema design to building advanced queries to performance optimization.

I've used Selenium and web scraping like beautifulsoup, lxml and scrapy on multiple projects.
