ABOUT ME
14+ years experience in software engineering and cloud architecture.
14+ years experience in software engineering and cloud architecture.

I have spent most of my career as a Software Engineer and Cloud Architect. I am currently working as an SRE at Indeed on the Edge team which handles over 200B requests per month via Cloudflare and AWS. Previous to Indeed, I worked at Kount (acquired by Equifax) where I was a Cloud Architect for two different products to prevent payment and identity fraud requiring extremely fast and secure payment processing in AWS and Go. I have mentored dozens of software engineers in their career goals and coding problems.

Fun fact: I lived in Thailand for 2 years and am fluent in speaking, reading and writing Thai.

Troy was really patient in working through code and understanding the thought process behind it. His experience with Golang also shows as we went over some best practices to help with debugging concurrency issues and general Golang tips.

As a cloud architect, I was responsible for leading the technical design for two different payment and identity fraud solutions, each with its own team of software engineers. I took an active role in mentoring the technical team and working with product, sales and marketing to ensure the team built it correctly and with extremely tight performance constraints.
