Sam

Technical hands-on manager, leading squads and contributing code. Notable achievements include: - As Squad Lead, I spearheaded the implementation of Clause Comparison, a new feature that enables semantic comparison of document clauses. This enhancement was facilitated by React UI modifications and a Python API interfacing with a pre-trained model served by BentoML. - Achieved a significant reduction in security vulnerabilities within Eigen’s SaaS product’s microservices by prioritizing quick wins, shifting security left into Docker build processes to eliminate redundant libraries, managing language, operating system, and library upgrades, and automating reporting. - Enhanced engineering productivity and mitigated security risks by identifying Renovatebot, creating a proof of concept, securing stakeholder approval, and successfully implementing the rollout across multiple repositories for automated software library updates. - Co-led the migration from TeamCity to GitLab CI/CD, documenting frequent use cases, improved practices, and potential challenges to facilitate the team’s transition to the new system. - As Squad Lead, spearheaded the planning and execution of Kubernetes autoscaling for the product’s document upload, training, and extraction processes. - Line managed several software engineers, spanning junior to senior levels, and was responsible for performance management and career development support.
