  • Tech lead for infrastructure teams including service infrastructure, data infrastructure, and presentation infrastructure. Some highlights:
  • Led development of Pemberly, the infrastructure used to convert LinkedIn from a static page design to a single page application (SPA) experience.
  • Created the initial design for LinkedIn's modern service stack. Led several projects that fell out of the design, including the transport layer, the service wiring system, and the asynchronous graph execution engine. Some of my work on the transport layer and general infrastructure has been open sourced at https://github.com/linkedin/rest.li. My work on asynchronous graph execution is open sourced at https://github.com/linkedin/parseq.
  • Member of the technology leadership group, responsible for establishing technical direction across engineering teams.
  • Developed the first asynchronous transport early on at LinkedIn as we struggled to scale our synchronous, servlet-based services.
