Ex-Twilio Staff Software Engineer | 7+ YoE | Frontend/Backend

Hey! I'm originally from San Francisco, CA. I spent 7 years at Twilio, most recently serving as the Technical Lead for the IoT Usage and Billing team based out of Berlin. I have created - and improved - dozens of systems during my time at Twilio. I have experience working on backend high-scale distributed systems, leading projects from the design phase all the way to release and long term support. On the frontend I've also shipped changes to Twilio's React based console. I've spent my entire career working in teams to accomplish more than we could individually. Specific Skills - Managed servers running in AWS - Expert in Java/Scala (especially ZIO/cats, akka), Python (gevent, flask, fastapi, SQLAlchemy) - Expert in REST API design - Experience using various datastores, MySQL/Postgres, Dynamo DB, Cassandra, (+ data and schema migrations on these systems) - Experience writing data scraping scripts - Experience in NodeJS - Passionate about frontend design - Have built websites from the ground up in Typescript, React JS, Recoil, Tailwind, NextJs. - Led a team of engineers for 2 years, where I pushed for high coding standards and maintainability, and reduced team technical debt by 50% - Build out the Super SIM product at twilio from MVP all the way to 1M+ SIMs - 7 years experience in shipping changes to production code with no downtime. In my free time I enjoy working on personal programming projects, reading blogs, playing basketball, going skiing, and traveling. I recently just wrapped up a trip through Thailand and Vietnam :). I'm looking to do freelance work to have more flexibility in the work I take and the hours I work.
