Brian Mullins

Head of Platform Engineering & AI

I led a team that developed platform infrastructure and services that supported our developers and our suite of production mobile applications. All services were delivered via robust infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD infrastructure that follow DevOps best practices. My role involved design, architecture, and implementation as well ensuring the efficiency, scalability, and reliability of our platforms. I also led our Labs R&D initiatives that explored bleeding edge technology, including AI, and developed ways to effectively leverage them in our products and inside the business.

Technical highlights included the design and implementation of a RESTful API, backend Python web services, and frontend asynchronous JavaScript components. Source code is available on GitHub.
