About

Engineering leader/player-coach who redesigned A/B testing and observability infrastructure for real-time audio/video features at 90M+ DAU scale, using Kafka-based ingestion and horizontally scalable aggregation for near real-time metrics. Managed 10–15 engineers, drove >20% infrastructure cost reduction without user-experience regressions, and led major peak-traffic incident response with lasting reliability improvements (load testing, capacity planning, alerting, pre-mortems).

Key Strengths

  • Led end-to-end redesign of A/B testing + observability pipeline for real-time AV features at 90M+ DAU scale
  • Deep distributed-systems architecture ownership (Kafka ingestion, partitioning, schemas, fault tolerance, scalable aggregation)
  • Cross-team technical leadership via design reviews and code review standards
  • Cost optimization without quality regression (reduced server infrastructure cost >20% while maintaining latency/quality/reliability)
  • Strong incident leadership under peak traffic (triage, mitigation via horizontal scaling/sharding, RCA, prevention via load testing/capacity planning and improved alerting)
  • Player-coach effectiveness (50–60% leadership / 40–50% hands-on) while staying close to production metrics and debugging
  • People management at scale (managed 10–15 engineers; structured 1:1s, coaching, and underperformance turnaround via improvement plans)
  • Improved delivery speed and reduced regressions by modularizing core AV library with stable APIs plus lightweight release/versioning process
