Developer - UBM / Black Hat

Jan 2011 - Jun 2011
Seattle, WA

Highlights:

  • Refactored a legacy conference management platform for the Black Hat brand whose denormalized data model hindered application performance, redesigning core data structures to improve maintainability and significantly reduce query complexity.
  • Strengthened credential security by migrating legacy password storage to a more secure scheme while preserving existing user credentials - avoiding a disruptive platform-wide password reset.
Conference portal for Black Hat Europe created through use of custom static site generation.
Due to organizational security policy all conference-related data sitewide was entered manually, ie. no framework, database, or Javascript.
