PROJECTS

Observability Tracing Module

• Designed and developed a tracing module that offers automatic instrumentation with OpenTelemetry or New Relic, empowering Node.JS/NestJS developers to effortlessly trace their applications
• Languages & Tools: JavaScript/TypeScript, OpenTelemetry, New Relic
• Specific Contributions: Developed and implemented a fully functional tracing module that was integrated into NestJS and Node Backstage templates

Observability Node.JS Library

• Built an observability library to standardize observability across all NodeJS/NestJS application across Procore
• Languages & Tools: JavaScript/TypeScript, NestJs, New Relic, StatsD, Winston, NPM
• Specific Contributions: Developed and integrated library

Observability Pipeline

• Languages & Tools: OpenTelemetry, New Relic, DataDog, Sumo Logic, Helm, and ArgoCD
• Specific Contributions: Infrastructure and CD pipeline setup and configuration

Concur Open Refactor

• A service status dashboard that displays Concur's service availability, incident communications, and root cause analysis of outages
• The original service was written in React v0.1 and was not maintained. This led to an application that lacked features due to a code base that was difficult and inefficient for developers to code in
• The refactor brought in new-age frameworks like React/Redux, TypeScript, Cypress/Jest testing, React Hooks API and a one touch CI/CD pipeline. This opened the doors and lowered the technical barrier to entry for my team to start releasing new features at a more consistent rate.
• Languages & Tools: JavaScript/TypeScript, React/Redux, AWS Codebuild, AWS ECS, AWS ECR
• Specific Contributions: Project lead, wrote and maintained design doc that led the development process. Setup service infrastructure as code and on-boarded the application into a CI/CD pipeline for one touch deployments. Developed multiple pages including the Subscriptions page and Incident Details page. Led the final deployment to uat and production.

Tesalate

• A multi-container application that gathers data from your Tesla and displays aggregate information like monthly stats, drive/charge sessions, and breadcrumbs to a dashboard
• Languages & Tools: JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.JS, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, and Tesla's API
• Specific Contributions: Sole developer
