TL;DR
I am a battle-hardened full-stack engineer, architect, and manager. I have the ability to produce creative and innovative solutions rapidly which are highly scalable, service-oriented, and have a focus on distributed cloud computing, big data, and continuous delivery. Specialties: Search, metadata, Amazon AWS, RESTful web services, NoSQL, scalability, concurrency, high availability.
I am looking for an opportunity to drive the creation of new technology products, while managing a team of engineers.
Summary
I have a Masters in Information Systems from Stevens Institute, and a bachelors in Computer Science from Stony Brook. For 4 years, I managed Search technology for The New York Times. Prior to that, I worked with Geographic Information Systems at Verizon Wireless, building internal tools for the Network Repair Bureau, RF engineers, and the Network Operations Center. I am presently the Head of Engineering for a startup in the fintech space.
