At Platform One, I played a critical role in developing scalable and secure software solutions for Department of Defense (DoD) projects, focusing on frontend development, interactive visualizations, and DevOps integration. Leveraging modern frameworks and methodologies, I delivered applications optimized for performance, usability, and compliance with stringent security standards.

Project EOS

  • Frontend Development: Engineered scalable and responsive Angular applications for Project EOS, ensuring a seamless user experience across classified and unclassified environments.
  • Real-time Data Handling: Utilized RxJS for reactive data streams, significantly improving the efficiency of real-time user interactions and form submissions.
  • Security and Compliance: Collaborated with DevOps teams to deploy applications on Platform One, adhering to strict security requirements, including automated scans and Certification to Operate (CtO) processes.
  • Mentorship and Best Practices: Conducted training sessions for team members on Angular, RxJS, and Test-Driven Development (TDD), accelerating onboarding and improving code quality across the team.
  • Testing and Quality Assurance: Implemented TDD practices using Jest, increasing test coverage and reducing frontend bugs by 50%, ensuring high-quality and reliable application delivery.

Project Battle Drill

  • Data Visualization: Designed and developed interactive data visualizations using D3.js to provide real-time insights into military operations, enhancing decision-making for DoD clients.
  • User-Centered Design: Worked closely with DoD clients to gather requirements and deliver solutions that met operational needs, improving user adoption and satisfaction.
  • Frontend Documentation: Managed component documentation with Storybook, standardizing UI elements for scalability and reusability across multiple teams.
  • Performance Optimization: Improved application responsiveness by optimizing frontend performance, reducing load times, and ensuring smooth user interactions even in resource-constrained environments.

Key Contributions

  • DevOps Collaboration: Partnered with Platform One teams to ensure seamless application deployment in classified environments, meeting high-security standards with tools like GitLab CI/CD.
  • Extreme Programming (XP): Adopted XP methodologies to enhance collaboration and iterative development, resulting in faster delivery of high-quality features.
  • Feature Rollouts: Implemented feature flagging to enable controlled rollouts and A/B testing, ensuring a seamless user experience during application updates.
