The Unique Blend

Physics rigor.
Production scale.
Modern craft.

My Ph.D. in experimental physics trained me to model complex systems, quantify uncertainty, and iterate rigorously under constraints. I bring that same discipline to distributed systems, stateful stream processing, and large-scale UI architecture at enterprise scale.

At Capital One I led the rebuild of critical card onboarding experiences serving every new customer, coordinated 100+ PRs across new teams, and delivered synchronized multi-channel features with backend and mobile.

Experience

Capital One
• October 2022 – Present
Full Stack Developer – Card Tech (Subject Matter Expert / Architect)
Card Onboarding & Account Setup (Full CI/CD Pipeline Ownership)
  • • Spearheaded the end-to-end delivery of the core Account Setup Upgrade UI rebuild, driving the architectural migration to modern Angular + NgRx. Coordinated ~100 PRs across a newly formed team and delivered to all new cardholders within 6 months.
  • • Designed a micro-frontend orchestration platform enabling external feature teams to plug in via lazy-loaded components and the Dynamic Tile Engine.
  • • Engineered stateful stream processing logic for a high-concurrency Node.js + Kafka pipeline, leveraging DynamoDB for state and materialized views (Paperless Settings).
  • • Owned UI leadership for the redesigned Early Spend Bonus tracker; executed a synchronized multi-channel launch (web + backend + mobile) to all credit card customers in 8 months.
  • • Established 100+ comprehensive unit, component, and E2E regression tests with Jest and Playwright; automated account reconditioning via backend APIs.
Tech: Angular • NgRx • Nx • Node.js • Kafka • DynamoDB • AWS Lambda • Playwright • Jest
Thomson Reuters
• January 2016 – September 2022
Java / J2EE Full Stack Developer
Enterprise Tax Determination & Analytics Reporting
  • • Led technical evaluation, POC, and adoption of JasperServer to modernize on-premise Crystal Reports. Architected containerized deployment on AWS ECS-EC2; hit production in 9 months.
  • • Designed Java/Spring Boot REST microservices mediating queries against AWS Redshift data lake + corporate SSO.
  • • Built a custom Python/JS backend connector (SnakePlane framework) exposing paginated reporting REST APIs to Alteryx — dramatically accelerated adoption among non-developer analysts.
  • • Drove Java 11 core migration (3-month roadmap), complex database migrations, and post-RDS upgrade debugging.
  • • Engineered Angular modules from scratch for the Certificate Manager cloud platform; resolved critical zero-day IE serialization bug by integrating PDF.js directly.
Tech: Java • Spring Boot • AWS (ECS, Redshift, CloudFormation) • Python • Angular • JasperServer • JMeter
