From April 2006 to August 2006 (5 months) Seattle, WAContributor @ Squeak Open-Source Community Developed research-oriented tools, contributed graphics framework optimizations, and helped develop the SqueakMap package-distribution tool and UI. From 1998 to 2006 (8 years) Firmware Software Developer @ Coastal Environmental Systems, Inc. Maintained and extended embedded, soft-realtime firmware for remote weather sensing station products. From July 2005 to October 2005 (4 months) Seattle, WASystems Engineer @ Microsoft, Inc. MSN DataWarehousing project to grow MSN Search into (what would become) adCenter. I ran ETL systems and some OLAP cubes and refactored and consolidated infrastructure code to support the scale-up issues. From February 2004 to February 2005 (1 year 1 month) Redmond, WASenior Software Engineer @ Truly.co Telephony backend/infrastructure engineering; interrupted by a disability period due to a motorcycle accident. From April 2019 to March 2020 (1 year) San Francisco, California, United StatesSenior Software Engineer @ Dialpad This was an acquisition move from TalkIQ!Scaled up ElasticSearch and developed data operations and migrations practices with our data engineering team. Integrated existing dashboarding and analytics frontends and APIs into the Dialpad ecosystem. Developed API-level integrations between analytics systems. From May 2018 to September 2018 (5 months) San Francisco, CASenior Software Engineer @ TalkIQ: Conversation Science Worked on the managerial / post-call interface to NLP results of phone call audio transcription with CRM data imports.Developed and refined analytic query capabilities and charting to navigate large sets of calls, and interactive elements to help navigate within calls and the ML-derived features within them. From August 2017 to May 2018 (10 months) San Francisco Bay AreaSenior Software Engineer @ Awake Security Worked on user interfaces for interactively filtering high-volume network data analytics.Timelines, dimensional, and measure filters were all implemented using D3 within ReactJS and Redux. Managed the analytic APIs that fed the histograms providing visual feedback about values available and their distribution. Managed a frontend stack back to the datawarehouse for collating this data and streaming it in live while the control was available to the user.

Developed:- an analytic SQL parser, query planner, and execution engine for in-memory GPU visual analytics.- a system for assigning visual encodings to columns based on summarized data distributions.- a method for dynamically remapping the coloring and other visual attributes used in a visualization of very high scale graph/network data.- a coherent philosophy around using interactive visualization controls to quickly assess and navigate high-scale graph/network data.- a system for tagging data based on analytic queries for comparisons. From June 2015 to July 2016 (1 year 2 months) Oakland, CASenior Software Engineer @ Cookbrite Backend/API developer with a data and analytics focus. Modeled recipe and household pantry and shopping activities. Worked with a Python stack against PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, and Neo4J. Collaborated with machine learning experts to design a dynamic feedback loop around activity data for suggestions optimizations and predictive assistance in the user interface.Worked with frontend developers on REST API design to support mobile client software constraints and to optimize each story while minimizing database load.Implemented SQLAlchemy-based Alembic database migration system to improve the ease of iteration on the data model. Tuned SQLAlchemy for maximum performance and throughput.Developed Neo4J models of ingredient similarity on a verbal and ontological level, and maintained reasonable data consistency with PostgreSQL. Developed an ElasticSearch document and indexing model to support fast multidimensional constraint satisfaction of user preferences. From March 2014 to April 2015 (1 year 2 months) Seattle, WASoftware Engineer @ Tableau Software Front-end development on visualization and query-building interfaces.Worked on:- Web and Mobile user interfaces for filtering and viz interaction.- Large-scale JavaScript application architecture.- Extracted C++ APIs into portable web-safe APIs to support rich web applications.- Maintained and expanded PDF and PNG export capabilities for web-based data visualizations.- Worked with interaction designers to adapt the core codebase to accommodate dialog-box-free interaction in viz authoring and modification.- Developed the initial Web Authoring environment and grew a team around it while improving its functionality. From May 2011 to March 2014 (2 years 11 months) Seattle, WASoftware Engineer @ Rentrak Working on the company's terabyte-scale data analytics products for media/advertising companies.Developed and implemented spatial GIS mapping of media consumption data on Google Maps (choropleths and other types of overlays).Developed and implemented geo-demographics and psychographics subsystems to integrate third-party consumer behavior data with media consumption data.Developed interactive data visualization modules to slice data in various ways.
