ABOUT ME
Designer, Architect and Engineer - Product, Data Analytics and Cloud
Designer, Architect and Engineer - Product, Data Analytics and Cloud
Hi, thanks for looking me up.
I'm a "hands-on" Software Designer, Architect and Engineer with deep full-stack experience; systems/data engineering, front-end design/development, mobile and devops/cloud.
I can work across several technologies proficiently with current hands-on experience in Kubernetes, Terraform, Google Cloud, AWS, DevOps, APIs, Full Stack React/Redux, Javascript/Typescript, Nodejs, Big Query, Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Postgres.
I also have strong focus on coaching teams to learn, adapt and innovate. Most of my work is around solving complex business problems through people and technology. I'm technology agnostic, with the exception that there are only a given number of technologies one can truly master in a lifetime (as listed above).
My experience ranges from designing and building to managing, leading, coaching mostly in medium to very large enterprises. I prefer to spend more time working with start-ups.
Feel free to reach out to me for a quick chat if you see me online.

Deep experience on GCP, building data platforms for complex multi-cloud architectures to SaaS startups.
Experience across all the PaaS offerings on GCP, having worked closely with the GCP Professional Services team and have had my work reviewed for design, implementation and security.
All the work is done in a purely scripted and automated approach using Terraform, shell scripts and GitOps.

Deep experience with the node.js runtime, covering from large APIs to small AWS lambdas. Experience with most the key npm packages used in Node development and I have also built a few modules on npm (OSS and private). I work with ES6 but also equally comfortable with classic Javascipt for node.
Recently, I have
- design and built a AWS S3 file cataloguing npm module to support automated data reconciliation for large volumes of data being put into AWS S3 everyday. Great experience with performance tuning node workers in the cloud, specially when processing huge files (some > 20 Gb) in/out of S3.
- designed and built a light-weight microservices platform/ecosystem for a startup using node, nginx, Express (over Cassandra and Spark) with APIs and workers, that are easy to maintain. The entire ecossystem configured with full CI/CD pipeline that delivers Docker images from github, through codeship, going into a Kubernetes farm on AWS.
- built AWS Lambdas for glueing and processing various events in a highly distributed architecture
- designed and built an OAuth2 api server over Cassandra
- designed and built a video upload/delivery API using AWS
- built a test automation module to support BDD using Cucumber.js and Selenium WebDriver
- built all code using TDD to acheive a high test coverage with mocha, chai, sinon, istanbul, ngMocks(Angular) and more recently Jest (React)

Deep experience in API design and development. All the work that I have done over the last 10 years has involved design and development of APIs.

- SOAP APIs (WSDL)
- TCP sinks
- WebSocket services
- APIs that integrated message queues and workers
- APIs with ESBs
- APIs served from Lambdas
- load-balanced, horizonltally scalable APIs
- Node.js Express APIs
- .NET C# WCF APIs
- ASP.NET MVC APIs
- Python Flask APIs
- Rust (Tokio)
Current experience with developing multi-speed microservices API ecosystem for enterprise-scale applications to cater for various levels of architecture (digital, business, process, application, infrastructure)

Deep experience in front-end design/development as well as enterprise-level microservices APIs, backend integrations and systems architecture/engineering, with a strong focus on innovation and coaching teams on software craftsmanship. Most of my work for customers is around solving complex business problems through people and technology. I'm technology agnostic, though I have preference for current toolsets (node, python, go, react).
My experience with people ranges from managing, leading to coaching in medium to very large enterprises. I'm also an agile coach, yet I prefer technology coaching. I'm not a trainer, per se, instead I work hands-on with development teams to help them solve their problems.
