I care about making teams faster — through better tooling, clearer abstractions, and systems resilient enough that on-call stays boring. Together with great engineers and leaders, I’ve shipped identity platforms at Workday, voice AI at LivePerson, and serverless pipelines at Black Knight.

Work Experience

Building distributed systems at scale across identity, voice, and fintech.

Senior Software Engineer

Workday (Evisort)

IdentitySCIMOIDCMulti-tenantAsync Queues
  • Built SCIM provisioning & unified OIDC auth for post-acquisition identity platform
  • Designed per-tenant schema isolation and DB-backed publish queue with exponential backoff
  • Led operational readiness, on-call ownership, and cross-service integration hardening
7 identity systems delivered
10K+ auth requests/min
4 services owned

Oct 2024 – Present Toronto, ON

◆ Architecture & System Design

Built SCIM API endpoints for Workday-Evisort user provisioning
  • Delivered the first Workday-Evisort integration post-acquisition (CRUD + Restore) in the identity service.
  • Implemented dynamic model creation for provisioning flexibility across Workday and the legacy identity provider.
  • Led GA hardening: deterministic role mapping ("highest role wins"), SCIM import failure fixes, and Workday identifier handling for migration stability.
Improved identity and document platform services for Workday user provisioning
  • Established a dedicated internal service-to-service channel (HTTP Signature Auth, dedicated port) for secure provisioning.
  • Fixed 2 critical IDOR vulnerabilities in document version endpoints — changed cross-tenant access from 403 to 404.
  • Built an async user creation task for post-SCIM user provisioning with retry logic and outbox events.
Implemented unified authentication via OIDC
  • Built a high-throughput token exchange endpoint handling tens of thousands of requests per minute.
  • Designed OIDC callback handling across identity and auth services (JWT generation, token verification, identifier resolution).
  • Integrated cookie-based session management and state-based redirection for deep linking.
Designed end-to-end unified logout between Evisort and Workday
  • Implemented frontchannel (Evisort-initiated) and backchannel (Workday-initiated) Single Logout flows.
  • Built dynamic JWT logout token validation using internal certificate authority discovery.
  • Demoed the complete logout flow to the engineering team and company-wide.
Owned the Super Admin Toggles EPIC for migration-safe identity architecture
  • Drove full technical design, ticket decomposition, and implementation across 4 services and the UI.
  • Introduced per-client toggles (user_management, authentication_provider) to decouple tenant mapping from login enforcement.
  • Designed backward-compatible data migration with feature flag controls for safe rollout.
Architecting per-client PostgreSQL schema isolation for the auth gateway
  • Replacing shared public schema with per-tenant isolation to reduce cross-tenant blast radius.
  • Implementing dual-write architecture with feature-flagged reads for zero-downtime migration.
Built a DB-backed publish queue with retries and exponential backoff
  • Designed an async task queue so downstream publish operations are enqueued and processed by a dedicated worker with ordered delivery guarantees.
  • Implemented exponential backoff retries (base 30s, max 600s, 6 retries) — downstream publishes survive 12+ hours of upstream downtime during quarterly maintenance windows.
  • Built atomic re-registration (deregister old → register new) with partial-failure recovery and snapshot-based rollback resilience.
  • Reduced Sentry alerts from ~50 per task to max 6; created a datapatch to re-enqueue previously failed tasks.

◆ Technical Leadership

Conducted live engineering demos and led design reviews
  • Presented SCIM provisioning, unified auth, and identity integration at company-wide engineering demos.
  • Documented workflows and recorded sessions to support team onboarding.
Owned on-call rotations and incident response
  • Reviewed and documented 5+ past incidents (SCIM sync failures, token verification issues).
  • Built a Confluence debugging playbook and mapped service ownership across 4+ platform services.
Buddied 2 new hires; participated in 14 interview loops (3 successful hires)
  • Created a repeatable onboarding reference guide.
  • Provided feedback to improve onboarding documentation and materials.
Led operational readiness reviews for the auth gateway
  • Authored production-readiness documentation covering observability, alerting, and reliability standards.
  • Enabled Prometheus-based observability and alerting; extended instrumentation to the NestJS gateway.
  • Raised authentication test coverage to 80%+.

◆ Development & Operations

Improved platform stability and scalability across identity and document platform services
  • Resolved key integration bugs and profiled the high-traffic token exchange endpoint.
  • Refactored core components for maintainability and increased test coverage.
Drove cross-service integration resilience
  • Built robust SSO token validation using internal CA certificate discovery.
  • Enabled auth gateway observability via /ping and /health endpoints.
  • Standardized metadata propagation across platform services and UI.
  • Refactored auth library naming conventions across Python and TypeScript codebases.
