Experience

Senior Software Development Engineer

• Mobile technical lead for iOS and Android delivery: owned user stories, backlog refinement, sprint planning, retrospectives, pull request reviews, and cross-functional release execution with product and design.

• Led React Native platform upgrades in production, including enterprise Figma design token adoption, migration to the Fabric renderer, and phased Flow-to-TypeScript migration.

• Improved production stability so session crash rate fell from 18% to 0.2% through monitoring, targeted fixes, hardening, and careful release planning.

• Defined system architecture and led a cross-functional initiative to add wearables to clinical trial workflows, from discovery and solution design to implementation, production rollout, and support for study teams.

• Contributed to open source in React Native Health, implementing Apple HealthKit atrial fibrillation (AFib) support from API design and implementation through release and partner integration.

Human Care Systems

• Built and ran an integration engine moving data for 800k+ patients across vendors and pharmaceutical clients on Node.js and AWS, owning architecture, on-call reliability, and day-two operations.

• Led a refactor and test automation push for remote ingestion pipelines (JavaScript, SFTP, AWS S3, PGP, mapping, reporting), reducing time to stand up a new integration by about 75%.

• Ran cutover and hypercare for a 200k+ patient migration (demographics through enrollments) on MongoDB and JavaScript, coordinating stakeholders, validation, and post-go-live fixes.

• Owned fifteen HIPAA-regulated integrations end to end, from requirements and implementation through deployment and production support for PHI exchanged with external partners.

• Shipped nurse-facing Vue.js workflow templates and event-driven microservices for clinical programs: wrote specs, trained users, and iterated from real-world production feedback.
