Jan 2019 - present
As a Software Engineer for Disney, I am on a team responsible for 10 distributed microservices that support the Walt Disney World resorts online sales flow, which includes rooms and Disney World vacation packages. My contribution includes ensuring the services maintain 99.9% availability and consistency for peak sales, developing new features related to business requirements, coordinating with product owners and other development teams, and sustaining the team’s applications. During the most recent peak sales, some services received roughly 40k calls per minute with average response times <50ms, and the others received about 10k calls per minute with an average response time <400ms.
- Backend Software Engineer: RESTful API development and integration for single-page applications and internal APIs, develop and integrate new features, migrate Spring Boot monolithic services to microservices, containerize services using Docker, create team documentation related to new features, and create dashboards to monitor metrics, such as sales data, for peak offer launches
- Tests: create unit tests for 100% branch and line coverage, component tests to ensure application works as intended, and integration tests to verify annotations and other framework tools produce expected results. Develop Postman scripts for development team and SDETs for automated API testing and Spring actuator endpoints, such as cache clearing
- Sustainment: security upgrades (e.g. dependencies, authentication, API constraints), triage development and production environments using cloud services and analytic tools, update applications when dependencies retire or become abandoned, and work with CICD team to improve deployment pipeline
- Team: review pull requests across different applications (Java and Angular JS), forecast velocities for scrum/kanban sprints, and led scrums and retros for smaller scoped projects
- Frontend Software Engineer: plan and develop a ServiceNow single-page application with backend RESTful APIs to display FAQs and wait times from a real-time database
- Automation: create and maintain scripts to recover linux and OSX based development environments using dotbot
