  • Proactively lead new technology projects identified by other business units; e.g., revamp of City Journal mobile application, new system integrations with data lake to facilitate Martech analytics, and others.
  • Mentor and train junior development staff.
  • Maintain a high level of customer service, authority, and professionalism to all business units and vendors.
