About

Software engineer at Amazon Blockchain with expertise in developing scalable and fault tolerant microservices. I have architected and developed performant software, comprising of maintainable and robust engineering principles. I enjoy building scalable and distributed systems and often contemplate the longevity and economic trade offs of a project. I was previously the lead solidity engineer for a social media Metaverse company where I wrote smart contracts for.

I have designed and developed trading APIs and internal tooling for financial companies primarily on the JVM; technologies involving Spring, Postgres, AWS, Kubernetes, Docker. This has all been implemented for scale and low latency, all which have satisfied hundreds and thousands of customers.

I provide mentorship regarding career progression, which entails what to focus your time on to progress fast in the technical field. This includes certain technologies, design patterns, data structures, algorithms and best practices which make a strong engineer. I provide expertise on design and architecture of systems, advice on which languages, tools, platforms to use. The number one rule is to pick the right tool for the right job, often which many get wrong; a problem which I aim to solve.

Mentorship consists of hosting a 40 minute session per week to discuss questions regarding tasks I set each week, which consist of providing technical resources which I recommend to my mentee's. I also provide contact through Discord, if any questions may arise during the week.

Session: Work Review

I was stuck trying to understand some requirements needed for our Android code. I was running out of time and needed a mentor ASAP. Even though John does not specialize in Android he still took the time to look at my questions and help give some suggestions as to what he felt would be the best approach. Thanks

John did an amazing job putting together a streamlined guide for me to bootstrap my progression. He put all great resources for me to check out and follow to learn Spring, SpringBoot, REST API's; Front end frameworks such as REACT; AWS...all that I asked for and beyond in a very clear and methodical way. He shared the document, and also set up time to go over it, and briefly showed me each of those resources. John is very knowledgeable and expert in these skills he listed on his profile. He is super friendly, patient, on time, and diligent!! Thank you so much for the services you offered to me, John!!
