Experience

Santech

Nov 2025 — Present

First data hire at an early-stage IoT startup — building the product, the pipeline, and sometimes packing the truck.

› Building a full-stack dashboard (React + .NET + InfluxDB + Grafana) to turn raw vibration data into equipment health signals
› Owning the data pipeline end-to-end: Modbus TCP ingestion, Node-RED flows, time-series storage, AI-driven anomaly detection
› On-site when needed — coordinating installs, validating sensors, making sure the data that comes in actually means something

Walmart

Jun 2025 — Aug 2025

Embedded on the Glass platform team keeping the Walmart Android app running for tens of millions of users.

› Refactored startup initialization from eager to lazy loading in Kotlin — a small change with a measurable footprint reduction at scale

Dec 2024 — Jun 2025

Built the data layer for a manufacturing client putting sensors on the factory floor for the first time.

› Designed ingestion pipelines to pull sensor telemetry off plant equipment and land it in structured tables for downstream use

American Airlines

Feb 2024 — Nov 2024

Promoted from intern to full-time on the Digital Analytics team, owning customer satisfaction intelligence for leadership.

American Airlines

Sep 2023 — Dec 2023

Started in the Operations Research & Advanced Analytics group, where the work converted into a full-time offer.
