Auto Generated Highlights relied on After effects which required a per-machine license which limited scaling. Tasked will helping develop an alternative solution. Helped develop inhouse solution that used HTML5 (CSS and Javascript) as effects and would render together using Ffmpeg. This reduced costs by 80% and allowed scaling to increase 10x
Processing data from various sources and formats caused massive overhead, that would not scale as they expanded to more states. Reduce Time by implementing a common data format across platforms and languages.

Decreased overall time by up to 40%.

I also developed the file recovery system so students can access files that were saved on library machines.
All releases were hand tested by the Test Engineers which is slow and inefficient. Aim was to automate common test scenarios. Established a testing Framework using Cucumber, and created a central applications that enabled testing team to view and compare tests. This streamlined testing and increase testing speed by 70%, allow for rapid development more inline with agile methodology.
