Presenting Launchpad Presenting Launchpad
Launchpad Team
  • Full stack software engineer on the Launchpad UI infrastructure team. We developed UIs, the infrastructure that supports those UIs and the pipeline that connects that infrastructure all the way to the database layer.
  • Rearchitected Launchpad into a 21st century desktop environment using TypeScript, JavaScript, C++, Python, SQL, CMake, DPKG and JIRA.
  • We took a legacy monolith system running C and gob code on sun and ibm servers and migrated to a hybrid system running UI local on the user’s desktop backed by services running on linux servers. One success of this was the ability to launch EMSX (a trading ticket launchpad component) in under 500ms worldwide versus the previous server side infrastructure with launch speed of 2 to 5 seconds especially in Asia / APAC
  • As a client facing team we were on the front lines, triaging bug reports and investigating client issues. Additionally we helping other engineering teams that use the launchpad infrastructure for their products.
  • We worked with product and engineering teams from across the company. This took place in five main steps. 1) Intake and "t-shirt" size estimation 2) Stakeholder prioritization 3) Design documents and team discussions 4) Break down work into tasks and epics 5) Code, deliver incrementally and iterate. We used JIRA sprints and JIRA projects to organize and execute on deliverables.
