“Backend engineer who evolved the X-Ray gaming analytics platform, leading a zero-downtime MongoDB→AWS DocumentDB migration with dual-write, checksum-based validation, and Kubernetes canary rollouts while maintaining real-time monitoring for millions of concurrent sessions. Strong in FastAPI/Python API scaling and performance tuning (cut latency from ~2s to <150ms and reduced DB load 90%) plus production-grade auth/RLS security patterns (JWT, Supabase Auth, PostgreSQL RLS).”

“Real Estate & Construction professional at Analog Devices who built a cross-functional "single source of truth" system (Excel to Smartsheet) integrating tools like CoStar and Conga.

“Senior Director-level engineering leader from Zelle who built a multi-year cloud and use-case expansion roadmap (e.g., SMB and brokerage funding) aligned to an aggressive growth target (from $1.2T to $5T in 5 years). Experienced scaling an engineering org from ~25–30 people into domain-driven pods and leading audit/compliance remediation (OCC, SOC 2, PCI) through security and infrastructure reengineering, including multi-region/multi-zone architecture.”

“Senior HR Business Partner with demonstrated impact driving org change and people strategy: led a sales division restructure delivering a 25% efficiency gain, and used people analytics to launch a mentorship program that improved retention by 30%. Strong in systems-thinking diagnostics (metrics + focus groups), leader coaching, and high-stakes employee relations/mediation.”

“Senior Enterprise Customer Success Manager in the Bay Area with a highly data-driven, AI-assisted approach to enterprise retention and expansion. Describes end-to-end ownership of large accounts (including a $300K+ account), using health scoring, sentiment/risk extraction from calls (Gong/ZoomInfo/Gainsight), and quantified business cases to influence product roadmap and secure renewals/expansions (100% GRR, 115% NRR, NPS target 72). Experience advising on martech/GTN tooling (Salesforce, Gainsight, Looker/Tableau) and applying SEO/analytics narratives in executive business reviews.”

“Engineering Manager/Tech Lead on Grindr’s monetization team who helped ship an AI-powered conversation summary feature (A-list), contributing across Android freemium implementation and backend LLM workflow service architecture/reviews. Demonstrated strong operational ownership by leading a Boost production incident from detection through rollback and prevention, and improved team throughput by introducing a lightweight end-to-end delivery process in a high-growth environment.”
