- Frontend Engineers Lead: led the frontend development of 10 CRM applications with 200,000 user base and made significant contributions to an additional 20. Responsibilities include supervising a team of 7 engineers, reporting directly to the project manager, leading sprint ceremonies, consistently monitoring the progress of each engineer, engaged in engineers performance evaluation, managing app deployment, and evaluating engineer candidates.
- Securing the annual demo from cancellation: In a critical moment, I swiftly resolved usability issues with an interactive map feature that initially froze due to the scale of handling 100,000 shapes/points, ensuring it ran smoothly without any freezing during interactions. This quick turnaround prevented the annual demo to 200,000 real estate agents from being canceled, and my approach was adopted company-wide as the standard for handling large-scale data visualization.
- VP-Level collaboration: directly reported to the Vice President of Engineering, led a comprehensive CRM platform transformation to transition from single-account to team accounts. Also, spearheading the MVP for integrating big data analytics tools (Looker) with all frontend applications.
- Managing high volumes of real-time data traffic: collaborated with a Senior System Architect to design microservices responsible for collecting and forwarding all user activities across the CRM platform. Tracking and integrating data from multiple sources in real-time including third party services. Enhancing data handling and user activity tracking for improved customer engagement. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) PubSub was utilized in this context.
- Tackling big challenges: pioneered the creation of a responsive and pixel-perfect email template, seamlessly rendering data-driven bar charts across diverse platforms, operating systems and devices. Recognizing the impracticality and high costs of creating unique graphical charts for each agent via image in cloud, I devised a coding solution that allows the HTML code to translate data points from server into bar lengths on the chart. Another challenge was 10% of users are using old email clients hence an old HTML syntax needed to be used to achieve consistency on layout. Achieved the company's first-ever widespread success in engagement with the user via email. The email is now used weekly to deliver personalized activity reports to over 200,000 real estate agents
- Optimizing development efficiency: meticulously documented research trials and errors in dev logs while perfecting the email template. These logs proved invaluable to fellow frontend engineers, saving them precious time in their email-related work.
- Boost user productivity: Integrated Apigee API for advanced lead generation tools, significantly boosting agent productivity and client engagement.
- UI perfectionist: conducted meticulous code reviews on frontend code to ensure pixel-perfect UI, adherence to best practices, and the implementation of safety measures in every workflow.
- Bugs terminator: swiftly responded to critical bugs, providing regular updates on progress towards fixes, ensuring smooth operations for end-users.
- Team player in challenging times: demonstrated resilience during a challenging period of consecutive firings due to the impact of COVID, showcasing commitment and dedication to my role and team.
