\cventry{Aug 2023 -- Present}{Senior Embedded Device Systems Engineer}{Flock Safety}{Remote}{}{
At Flock Safety, I was once again thrown into the ever-ambiguous challenge of designing, creating, and launching innovative products at an incredibly fast-paced startup. I refused to accept any concept of 'blockers,' relentlessly pursued and prioritized holistic views of the tasks that stood between product inception and launch (HW, factory, OS/Apps, Ops, you name it), and made many critical contributions to fleet stability, launch timelines, feature performance, and most importantly, team morale and attitude.
At Flock Safety, I was once again thrown into the ever-ambiguous challenge of designing, driving, and launching innovative products at an incredibly fast-paced startup. As an IC, I cut through dense forests of technical debt and competing deadlines to deliver orders of magnitude performance improvements to mission-critical video streaming verticals. As Engineering Manager of the Device Video Streaming team, I guided 3 direct reports to the successful bring-up of 3 high-value products, in addition to making active contributions to fleet stability, launch timelines, and feature performance.

At Wyze, I became a Zen master of refactoring, the Sun Tsu of LoC count, a code monkey with the most primal desire to simplify all that I could touch. I learned more and worked harder than at any point in my career and gained important ownership over critical core product features. I actively played a key role in the complete lifetime of multiple products, from inception, to launch, to maintenance; And was a trusted expert voice in the design and architecture of our software solutions.
