Experience

Where I've worked

Software Engineer - InfoTech

2022 - 2026

  • Worked across a large Rails and Vue codebase used by thousands of contractors and project managers.
  • Shipped features in reporting, search, integrations, and authorization across backend and frontend.
  • Spent a lot of time on cross-cutting production bugs where one issue touches the backend, the frontend, and a partner system all at once.
  • Modernized legacy UI and overhauled the test infrastructure.
  • Helped make the local dev environment something new engineers could actually set up on day one.

Software Engineer Intern - Springbig

2021

  • Worked as a liaison between Springbig and external developer teams integrating with our API, helping define how integrations actually worked.
  • Automated a reporting workflow that had been eating 10+ hours a week of manual effort using Rails, Python, and AWS Lambda.
  • Wrote a ton of SQL for reporting and data pulls.
  • Got comfortable debugging integration failures through CloudWatch and API Gateway, which turned into a recurring theme in my career.
