Proof
2017-present
I am a lead product engineer for the web client architecture on a team of 50+ engineers. I mentor, teach, conduct peer review, steward, and drive modern engineering practices. I also manage much of the tooling (Webpack, Jest, Babel, etc.) and our DevOps automated processes and pipelines. I helped to establish our engineering support and on-call processes.
As an individual contributor, I also write, design, and maintain many vertical, customer-facing features (TypeScript, GraphQL, React). Some notable features include our WebRTC audio and video calling, real-time PDF collaboration and signing experience, automated credential analysis, fraud protection, and mission-critical legal audit trailing.
