I solve problems, design systems, lead development of products, manage teams, and mentor others to achieve their success. Together, we’re building the EA Digital Platform: EA’s core back-end services, aimed to empower game teams.
I managed the software development team of a patented esports tournament and cash match platform for mobile, desktop, and web. I helped make crucial decisions, facilitated safe conversations, interfaced with advisors and investors, sourced and recruited developers, and wore every engineering hat necessary. I managed the product goals and roadmap, including market research and partner relations. As we grew our player base, I also managed our community, including research, outreach, and support.
After having built the initial front-end and distributed back-end, we grew the team and I ultimately focused primarily on team and project management, as well as partner relations. We used ClojureScript & React on the front-end and Clojure & Ring on the back-end. All services were Dockerized and all IO to/from Postgres, Mongo, and other external sources was scheduled by core.async.
