Development

I started as a software engineer for NA e-Commerce "Showroom" working as a front-end developer on a React application for reimagining the buying experience for customers and ordering their Ford vehicles online. I then moved to the PD IT - Safety Innovation Lab as a full-stack software engineer assisting in the development of applications for running/scheduling crash tests. I also developed an iOS application, "PAULS", to create a method of securely and conveniently capturing photos and videos, labeling them, and storing them in a secure internal database. I now work as a Software Engineer in Ford Pro as a front-end developer to help design, engineer, and develop the front-end interfaces used for fordpro.com.

Methods

I work with an end-to-end, full-stack mindset to solve business problems with IT solutions. I pair with other software engineers to deliver features that customers desire. I utilize Test Driven Development (TDD) and Behavior Driven Development (BDD) methodologies. We design and engineer CI/CD pipelines and deploy with cloud tools such as GCP to ensure a seamless experience for our end-users

Technologies

We develop solutions using ReactJS, Figma, Google Cloud Portal (GCP), etc. We use a full set of technologies to support our products and support our customers. The industry is constantly changing, and we are constantly adopting new technologies to pivot accordingly

Usability Testing

I conducted Usability Testing on Ford Electric Vehicle owners for the enrollment process of the Ford Grid Integration Program. I developed usability tests with usertesting.com and conducted an analysis on the data and presented it to the team and stakeholders.

UX Design

I gathered needs from stakeholders to design and create a mock-up of the un-enrollment process for the Ford Grid Integration program. Due to NDAs, I am not able to include any designs on this page.

Project Management

I managed a small team working to conduct research on the effects of globalized domains on search engine optimization (SEO). Together, we developed a domain naming strategy for the “Ford Member Account” single sign-on webpage.
