Where I've done the work
Jul 2022 — Present
Software Engineer
Jambo
Edmonton, Canada
Full-stack and platform work on a stakeholder-engagement product used by enterprise and government clients.
- Sole technical owner of a company-wide Node.js v18 → v22 upgrade across backend services and microservices, coordinating phased rollouts with production stability throughout.
- Designed configurable Custom Field Types (Number, Currency, Rich Text) on a shared column model, and led the Quill → Tiptap editor migration with native table and image support.
- Led a team of 3 to deliver the first Vue template-based report, owning requirements, delegation, and cross-developer coordination.
- Enforced strict TypeScript across microservices, migrating loosely-typed services to fully strongly-typed systems.
- Migrated data access from Bookshelf → Hasura → Prisma and AWS SDK v2 → v3; improved grid performance with server-side pagination and bulk operations.

About
A throughline of ownership
For eight years I've worked where full-stack breadth actually matters — government and enterprise platforms where a feature isn't done until it survives real load, real data, and real users. I move comfortably between a React or Vue front end and the Node.js and .NET services behind it, and I tend to gravitate toward the harder half: migrations, data layers, auth, and the systems work that keeps a platform stable while it grows.
The through-line of my career is ownership. I've been the sole technical owner of a company-wide runtime migration, the lead on new product capabilities, and the person who quietly modernizes the tooling everyone else depends on. I care about strongly-typed systems, clear interfaces, and code that the next engineer can reason about.
I'm also an AI-forward engineer — Claude, Cursor, and Copilot are part of how I plan, build, test, and review every day. Not as a novelty, but as leverage that lets me ship more, and more carefully.
