Kevin Gorski

As the engineering manager for the Learning Assistant team: • Managed a team of ~5 direct reports, including interns who later returned to Quizlet fulltime and fulltime engineers that were promoted and/or recognized for excellence in their roles • Coordinated projects and agile processes across functions (product, design, ML/DS, marketing) • Defined, set up, and reported on operational and performance tracking metrics (Datadog) • Guided and implemented parts of the sunsetting of the premium content marketplace

As part of the founding team in the new Quizlet office in Denver, CO I helped take the premium content marketplace from a generalized proof of concept to a test and certification prep resource with new features for studiers and verified content creators. • Optimized product pages for speed and search engine results (SEO) • Built new content bundling options and study modes to increase value and average selling price • Designed and built a flexible content pricing system • Ran A/B tests to determine optimal pricing and purchase duration • In Fall of 2020 I moved to the Learning Assistant team to work more directly on our ML- and learning science-driven study tools.

At HomeAway I architected and developed new products and features for property management companies delivered as single-page apps within larger legacy web applications. I also coordinated communication and built alignment across teams in order to deliver on our organizational goals. • Launched Market Maker revenue management at RezFest 2017 by scaling UI, microservices, and data stores from 1-5 properties per view to thousands per view. • Saved hundreds of hours of work per month with an automated payment reminder and collection service alongside a self-service, responsive UI for guests to resolve payment issues. • Increased booking conversion rate for legacy systems by improving quote-time rate accuracy with web services using a newer and more expressive data structure. • Mentored and gave feedback on junior developers to help grow their skills and careers.
