My role at Smartsheet is quite broad. I'm on the team rebuilding the core "sheet" product. That includes the grid/card/gannt/calenar views.
My primary focus has been how to scale the product to meet the data expectations set by customers. I also spearheaded the realtime collaboration portion of the app which allows all logged-in users on a sheet see what other users are doing. This was particularly challenging because we needed to process, commit, and transfer action to all users in under a second.
Drift acquired Siftrock in 2018.
I lead the Email AI team responsible for over-seeing our next-generation of Classification and NLP of email. I work with the product team to scope out work, and set goals. I am able to take an ambiguous task and work through the use-cases and design to meet the business need.
Once something has been properly scoped I work through the architecture making sure any impact is removed (or at a minimum, limited and understood) and begin implementation.
Siftrock was acquired by drift in August 2018.
At Siftrock I would work with a product manager to build and deliver the core of Email AI. I was responsible for the design and architecture of the entire system.
