				integrations with several AWS services.</p>
			<p>My biggest project during my role as an Software Engineer II has been the development
				of an RBAC <span className="abbrev">(Role-Based Access Control)</span> Platform
				service. I was heavily involved in this project from the initial design and
				implementation stages all the way through to customer migrations, over a period
				of 3 years, with leadership and ownership over the project being transfered
				over to me one year into the project. Aside from the technical challenges,
				this involved coordination across teams and offices to align integration with
				and migration to this new service.</p>
			<p>I have also led the design and implementation of the product's AWS CloudTrail
				integration, and successfully launched the service for customers.</p>

			<p>During my time at Rapid7 I have also been extensively involved in:</p>
			<ul>
				<li>Development of functionality, fixing of issues, and the handling of third-party
					pull requests on Github on the company's ingestion libraries. These libraries
					allow customers to send their log data into the log search engine, and are
					written in a variety of languages including Java, Python, Javascript, Ruby, PHP
					and C#.</li>
				<li>Automation of developer workflows and migration of problematic acceptance
					testing and build setups to a Docker container-based approach.</li>
			</ul>
			<p>Using mostly Java and Python, employing TDD/BDD development practices.</p>
