Zume, Inc
September 2019 - January 2020
DevOps Engineer (Software Engineer I)
Working at Zume before the Seattle office was laid off, I was able to get hands on experience
with the full Devops pipeline of code deployment from a local environment to the production
clusters. I created Kubernetes clusters from scratch in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and
installed Helm as well as ingress load balancers. I also wrote my own Helm charts and
Dockerfiles, as well as created webhooks to trigger the Docker image build process in Jenkins.
This process of installing services to different cluster environments (dev / perf / staging /
prod) was automated by Spinnaker pipelines that I also wrote. I carried a security mindset
throughout all my work, setting up alert monitoring and handling cluster authorization.

MoxiWorks
June 2018 - August 2019
Quality Assurance Engineer Intern
MoxiWorks is an expanding real estate tech startup located in Pioneer
Square. As a QA
engineer I write automated testing software in Java to cover the Moxi suite
of web products
as well as their external API. Our workflow uses agile development and
sprints to push out
new features, as well as git to maintain the shared repo we all work in.
This position has
helped strengthen my programming habits for writing scalable code meant to
be reused /
revisited by different people for years to come. It's also given me more
experience
communicating with a team through daily standup meetings.

KBVR FM / TV
September 2016 -
April 2018
Full Time - Student Engineer
At Orange Media Network I worked as student engineer for OSU's TV / Radio
station KBVR FM /
TV. I was in charge of learning and teaching state-of-the-art media software
/ hardware used
in our daily TV productions and radio broadcasts. I ran audio for
on-location OSU football
broadcasts, and was sent to the National Association of Broadcasters
convention in Las Vegas
by my college in 2015 / 2016. The position helped me gain experience in
learning new tech
outside my comfort zone, and teaching that technology to students in an
understandable way
devoid of technical jargon.
