Seeking remote leadership role in security or platform engineering. Engineering Manager who secured payment systems and cut oncall incidents by 90%. Reduced workforce cycle times 20x and enabled non-technical QA to deploy independently. Shipped a risk engine that neutralized a card-testing botnet with near-zero false positives. Author of open-source libraries like tiny-cbor (800k+ downloads/wk).
Hired and grew a 9-person remote platform team from junior to autonomous engineers, including performance management and PIPs. Directed platform architecture that cut other teams' build times from 5 min to 15 sec and gave QA self-service deploys. Project recognized at the executive level.
Designed an interchange model across 5 POS platforms to resolve data incompatibilities. Mentored the team through implementation. Error rates improved from 30% to under 1%.
Built a real-time risk engine on Redis to prevent further automated (500 card tests per minute) payment abuse. Profiled timing, account age, and API patterns. Near-zero false positive rate.
Secured JetBrains AI for every engineer. Evaluated Copilot and Cursor on own time; identified safe patterns. New contributions started shipping with test coverage via AI generation.
Core monolith took 10–15 min to build and dev environments broke weekly. Directed Docker, build caching, microservice templates, and SPA infrastructure. Frontend waits fell to seconds.
Incomplete captcha coverage and no email verification enabled credential stuffing and bot abuse. Redesigned unified auth across web, mobile, and restaurants with OAuth for a key partnership.
Built a tokenized payment API to strengthen card data handling. Directed app teams across mobile and web to migrate. Offloaded card data from infrastructure, reducing PCI scope.
New teams stalled on architecture and deployment. Embedded directly, diagnosed blockers via 1:1s, and built reusable project templates. New projects launched in days instead of weeks.
Built PCI Level 2 compliance program from scratch; passed year-over-year QSA audits.
Deployed YubiKeys for 50 privileged staff; enforced WebAuthn policy across OneLogin and AWS.
Created a bug bounty program funded by C-level with severity criteria, SLAs & payouts ≤ $1,500.
Owned end-to-end integration for Order with Google (Search/Maps food ordering) as a pioneer partner, driving 30%+ of company revenue for years.
Scaled order pipeline from single-server to clustered architecture for 3x pandemic traffic surge.
Built custom HTTPS infrastructure serving 3,000+ restaurant domains for $60/mo vs $2,700/mo.
Rebuilt security after data breach — bcrypt migration, encrypted bank data, HaveIBeenPwnd checks.
Designed HL7 integration for reference lab orders and results, processing 10,000+ tests/month.
Represented clinical lab in cross-org HL7 councils, aligning report standards for patient safety.
