gemini
i have produced many pieces of work while at gemini. from smaller migrations to new services, to large scale implementations of data pipelines, compliance management tools, and highly distributed systems.
my day to day involves working on the identity team, which is a key component of gemini's product operations. i work with stakeholders across the entire organization to ensure proper user behavior, regulatory compliance, and operational excellence.
i lead projects to ensure the identity service is always able to handle the massive scale of traffic, especially in a highly volatile environment such as a cryptocurrency exchange.
one of my more recent projects has been an overhaul of user kyc systems, moving from state-based to event-based architecture, giving users real-time updates system wide. this was a major undertaking, changing a large legacy system to a more manageable and scalable one. i wore both the hat of lead engineer and product manager for this project, working with stakeholders across the entire organization to ensure the project was successful.
