WORK EXPERIENCE
Senior Software Engineer, Standard Data, Inc. • Houston, TX
Aug 2023 – Present- Reduced readiness-report prep time 40% across U.S. airbases by shipping Java/Spring Boot micro-services (TypeScript, MongoDB, SQLServer) that delivered ML-driven maintenance calculations.
- Led Azure (Pipelines / Ansible / Docker) CI/CD automation to streamline front-end and back-end deployments, accelerating prototype delivery and tightening client feedback cycles.
- Built and maintained a ( C# / Ansible / Docker ) data-sync tool that securely ingested 100s of GB of sensitive customer data, keeping demos production-current and boosting adoption.
- Ramped up in Java to support a major architecture shift; migrated from micro-services (Python / Redis / MongoDB / Java) to a monolith with two engineers, shipping a beta in 3 months and live-user testing in 6.
- Authored the organization’s System Security Plan (SSP) and led the end-to-end effort to achieve CMMC Level 1 compliance in one month, coordinating stakeholders, implementing required practices, and assembling audit-ready evidence.
- Served as a customer-facing, on-site engineer, deploying and demonstrating software to senior military stakeholders (including generals), providing operational support, and delivering new features in parallel.
- Contributed heavily to core Java backend systems and much of the API, especially user-specific endpoints, data models, and latency- reduction strategies for heavy calculations.
Software Developer, Classic Canvas Company • San Antonio, TX
Feb 2023 – Jun 2023- Increased the efficiency of current customer outreach efforts by automating email marketing and creating a tool that can schedule and automatically post social media content.
- Deployed and configured a self-hosted accounting, invoicing, and expenses platform using Docker and PostgreSQL, with custom features such as company-specific branding, data views, and reporting. The solution eliminated QuickBooks subscriptions, saving over $4,000 annually.
Cloud Solutions Architect Intern, University Lands • Houston, TX
May 2020 – Aug 2020- Automated ETL workflows for Drilling and Completion reports in the Permian Basin by developing server-less Python Lambda functions on AWS. The solution streamlined integration of critical oil well data and saved engineers significant time previously spent on manual data entry.
- Collaborated with mechanical and petroleum engineers to design Python notebook templates that streamlined type curve creation and well cost analysis, improving data-driven decision-making and accelerating engineering and financial evaluations.
Peer Teacher, Texas A&M College of Engineering • College Station, TX
Aug 2020 – Dec 2021- Supported 70+ undergraduate and graduate students through weekly in-person/virtual office hours, while assisting instruction across five courses (Data Structures and Algorithms, Introduction to Computing, Computer Organization, Discrete Mathematics, and Linear Algebra) by reviewing materials and grading assignments.
PROJECTS
Creative Developer, Art Club • Houston, TX
Dec 2024 – Present- Created immersive real-time 3D installations with TouchDesigner, Blender, and mathematical modeling, enhancing weekly live shows and permanent exhibits experienced by over 300 patrons per day.
- Maintain and repair over dozen high-performance servers powering real-time visualizations and gallery-wide installations, ensuring reliability and minimal downtime.
