• • Championed and drove the standardization of the tech stack (Ruby, Docker, frontend libraries) across all 5 applications, reducing onboarding time, simplifying cross-team debugging, and eliminating environment-specific defects
• • Designed and socialized a unified Ruby application architecture (spanning Rails and Sinatra apps from 2 to 10+ years old), establishing a logical directory standard for core concerns like ETL transformations, service modules, and API support layers to drastically reduce context switching, accelerate feature development, and streamline cross-application maintenance.
• • Instrumented all 5 applications with unified observability using Sentry (Ruby SDK) and Splunk, crafting custom error events and log formatting to improve debugging and performance analysis while scrubbing PII for compliance.
• • Collaborated closely with infrastructure teams on a major OS migration, upgrading application dependencies and conducting compatibility testing to ensure a seamless transition, leveraging Docker to replicate and debug production environments and maintain system stability, gaining deep exposure to the full migration lifecycle.
• • Serve as the primary technical liaison with the client and PM, managing expectations, prioritizing requests, and coordinating complex, multi-stakeholder releases to ensure seamless delivery
• • Mentor and unblock senior developers through consistent 1:1s and technical guidance, fostering a culture of collaborative problem-solving and high-quality, maintainable code.

@ Scout Talent Recruitment Software
