Support a team of 4 engineers to develop better configuration consumption experience.
Our mission is to enable Meta developers to easily consume configurations in any language efficiently, reliably, and consistently.

Built a team of 11 engineers from scratch to empower Meta developers to make safe configuration changes quickly and easily. Designed and shipped the change safety mechanism that it has become a part of the standard configuration deployment workflow.
Built tools and backend systems for authoring and distributing configs for all Meta products and services.

Designed and constructed a new distributed task queuing system from scratch that processes asynchronous jobs from Yelp's backend services. (AWS SQS, Apache Kafka)
