From November 2011 to January 2013 (1 year 3 months) Software Developer @ "Cloud Spend Management" was the official tagline, but in human terms this meant an S3-hosted Rails app to help companies manage indirect spend. Mostly just delivering boring enterprise features (requisitions, POs, invoicing, expense management) on a tight schedule. Migrated a 100k line Rails 2.3 app to Rails 3 over the course of six months, extracting strings (for internationalization) and doing a UI refresh in the process.

Wrote/maintained bandwidth monitoring scripts, registration process for incoming users, and various internal admin pages. From June 2008 to May 2010 (2 years) Intern @ Worked in the Business team (they call it Biz) as a summer intern. Did a few admin pages, added graphs so business owners could see pageviews over time, and various other projects I can't remember any more as I write this in 2012. From June 2009 to August 2009 (3 months)
