Gastric IQ
## Gastric IQ: Digestion Intelligence A specialized digestion companion built for the GLP-1 and bariatric journey. Moving beyond basic calorie counting, Gastric IQ leverages live modeling to estimate gastric load, track medication pharmacokinetics, and map symptom patterns. It provides users with actionable insights into how their medication cycle, meals, and food noise interact in real time.

Proposify
Originally hired as a Frontend Developer, I pivoted to lead a major architectural overhaul after identifying critical bottlenecks in Proposify's legacy "view-rendering" backend. I refactored 85% of the PHP codebase into a **DDD-based API**, introduced **React** during an internal hackathon, and increased test coverage from **0% to 3,000+ tests** in eight months. These contributions to performance and scalability earned me a promotion to **Senior Software Engineer** and enabled the platform to scale for the next generation of SaaS users.

The New York Times: Multimedia
I re-engineered **The New York Times** multimedia pipeline, replacing legacy systems with a modern **Node.js** and **AWS serverless** architecture. By developing an **AI-powered subtitle service**, I slashed manual production time by 55%, while my work on an event-driven media factory improved overall processing efficiency by 10%.

Soundcloud: Media Streaming
I led the development of The Encryptor, a high-concurrency DRM and on-demand encryption service for SoundCloud. I implemented low-level fMP4 atom parsing to inject encryption metadata and integrated with the License Manager to orchestrate secure DRM certificate delivery. By architecting the service in Go on AWS ECS, I helped achieve a 30% reduction in digital piracy while ensuring high-performance streaming for millions of users.

MediaValet: DAM Video clipping tool
Delivered a high-performance video clipping feature from scratch in just 30 days. Using **React** and **Shaka Player**, I engineered a precise multi-range slider interface that synchronized with the video playhead. **Key Achievements:** * **Zero Performance Overhead:** Client-verified implementation that maintained player speed and stability. * **Frame-Accurate Synchronization:** Seamless state management between clipping handles and video playback. * **Rapid Delivery:** Took the project from concept to production on a strict 1-month timeline.

GSTS: Ociana - Voyage Report
# Voyage Report - Enables user to form independent assessment on vessel reliability towards arrival at port - Independent reports with historic and real-time data on ship movements and environmental factors that affect the voyage offering weather and performance data at configurable intervals - actual data can be exported at any time Architected and built a historical tracking module that visualizes vessel paths alongside real-time environmental data (waves, weather, speed). By optimizing the data retrieval process and designing a high-density marker system, I enabled maritime operators to perform deep-dive analysis into 48-hour voyage histories. **Key Features:** * 15-minute interval breadcrumb tracking. * Integrated weather & wave condition overlays. * Optimized PostgreSQL joins for historical data correlation.

Soundcloud: Vinyl Studio
I led the development of a vinyl e-commerce and moderation ecosystem, enabling independent artists to sell physical records with zero upfront costs. I architected the internal moderation tool from scratch and bridged the gap between frontend and backend by contributing to the Go microservices, ensuring a 2x faster delivery of critical features.
