    CI:Insight A hardcore text and data analytics application that allows customers to quicklyfind “insight” in a mess of social media data. Insight is an almost fully AJAX application with a Ruby on Rails backend that talks to several webservices and datastores. Iteratively designed and built the app with a small team over a few months.The interface is completely custom built using several js frameworks such as jquery,raphaeljs, and underscore, to achieve a high level of interactivity and maintainability.

    Internal Apps w/ SSOReplaced the “monolithic” internal app to be multiple small, focused, and maintainable apps.I designed a handrolled single-sign-on system using memcache to share session stateacross several applications that requires very little configuration in each app (I hate lots of configuration). I also developed replacement apps that allowed our operationsteam to quickly accomplish business tasks that were previously di�cult or impossibleto accomplish.
