SDE III - Audible

SDE III Audible is the world’s largest producer and provider of audiobooks and audio entertainment, reaching millions of listeners globally as an Amazon company. I joined Audible’s Consumer Domains org as an SDE III, where I work on the credits system, the core mechanism that powers Audible’s membership model and allows members to acquire titles. The credits system sits at the heart of how customers interact with Audible’s catalog, making it one of the most critical and high-traffic domains in the consumer experience.

Principal Engineer - Walmart Pharmacy & Vision

Principal Engineer Walmart is one of the largest retailers in the United States and the world. After leaving Swap Health, I decided to take some time to figure out what to do next. I remembered fondly my time with Walmart in the past and decided to apply. I wanted to leverage my experience in health care and continue to help people. Walmart hired me in their Pharamacy and Vision department as a Principal Engineer. My role as a Principal engineer had me working on all sorts of projects. My biggest project at Walmart was modernizing the in-store pharmacy systems. Together, we converted over 100 legacy C code programs into Go code in addition to migrating over 1K other legacy programs and scripts to modern, maintainable code that will serve as the foundation for future of pharmacy systems. I also worked on design and implementation of the next-generation pharmacy applications such as the core workflow engine and the “Test and Treat” applications. In addition to my technical work, I also developed process improvements, set up new tools and infrastructure, helped make Go a first-class language for all of Global Tech, and provided mentoring and guidance to junior engineers. Unfortunately, my time at Walmart ended in 2026. They asked all the engineers in the Hoboken office to relocate to the HQ in Bentonville, Arkansas. I was unable to relocate and thus I left and found a new job here at home.

CTO - Swap Health

Co-Founder and CTO My former boss from my DoubleVerify days, a serious and serial entrepreneur, reached out to me during the spring of 2021 with a question: what if we could help people make better choices while grocery shopping? I thought the idea was really interesting, we could apply a lot of the advertising techniques and technology towards helping people get healthier. Over the next week I built out a prototype chrome extension that could analyze products and make recommendations for people shopping for groceries online. And just like that I co-founded a Health Tech startup. From POCs to pilots, I built and managed all the technology that powered Swap Health. I built the backend and core technology, and managed teams of contractors to implement a polished and user-friendly Google Chrome Browser Extension and Ionic App. Our company focused on managing chronic conditions by changing their behavior to make better choices for their health. Our first product was a Google Chrome Browser Extension (since deprecated) which would assist users as they shop for groceries online. As users navigated the grocer’s website, the extension would analyze the page and identify products, surfacing small hints and advice about the products and recommend alternative, healthier products. Out of the extension came a mobile-app which allows users to take our healthy intelligence into physical stores. The app allows users to browse through our database of products, build shopping lists with the help of our Shopping Assistant, and scan product barcodes for real time analysis. It also allowed users to schedule and communicate with their human dietitians through integration with our EMR system. In addition to pure engineering, I was also in charge of operational tasks including compliance (HIPAA) and insurance. I also participated heavily in the fundraising process and getting our first pre-seed investment from 25madison Health

Staff Engineer - Walmart Labs

Staff Engineer and Fortune 1 Company Walmart is one of the largest retailers in the United States and the world. When Walmart fully absorbed Jet.com, my team from Jet was merged with another team working for Walmart Labs proper. We brought much of our experience with our A/B testing platform to the Walmart-developed tool. We brought A/B testing to all of Walmart, including in-store operations. Together we built a single, performant platform that supported a growing culture of testing and optimization at Walmart. I also led efforts to upgrade our internal telemetry system to use OpenTelemetry. I also led experiments and research into improving user experience through new integrations and work flows (e.g. GitOps-based experiments) and in upgrading our platform to a next-generation architecture built on edge-computing via Web Assembly.
