Work Experience

Lead Software Developer

2020 - 2025
Walmart
  • Led a 24-person team to migrate FixIT to React Native and integrated Compass Maps indoor mapping for on-site workflows across Walmart stores.
  • Reduced blocking tickets to zero for FixIT by driving reliability fixes, tighter release discipline, and production issue ownership.
  • Built the Walmart Spatial Platform initially as a solo engineer, then onboarded and led 4 engineers to deliver points, heatmaps, text, and hex layers.
  • Ported mapping from a Google Maps React wrapper limited to about 4,000 markers to Deck.gl WebGL, scaling to about 250,000 markers smoothly.
  • Enabled higher volume visualization by implementing clustering and unlocking practical support for millions of points.
  • Built a user-driven upload and rendering workflow that lets teams visualize custom datasets with selectable layers in a Kepler.gl style experience.
  • Led front-end architecture decisions and performance monitoring, then shipped optimizations that stabilized rendering and improved interaction responsiveness.
  • Owned weekly CI and CD deployments by coordinating releases, running pipelines, and resolving build or deployment blockers to keep delivery predictable.

Experience

Senmar Services Website

https://senmars.com/
I built a conversion-focused website for Senmar Services, a secure document destruction provider with 25+ years in operation. The site clearly communicates the core value prop (secure destruction with chain of custody), highlights trust signals (hundreds of corporates served, DPDP risk framing), and explains the service in a simple three-step flow. The website also presents tiered service protocols (ad hoc purge, continuous compliance subscription, enterprise suite) and drives leads through quote and consultation call-to-action links.
