Timothy Shepston Overly

• Architected and directly developed product features using Ruby on Rails and EmberJS.
• Evolved a minimal viable product from launch to a reliably maintained and deployed application.
• Made and implemented key decisions to migrate backend systems to increase developer productivity.
• Implemented core team processes including interviews, retros, code reviews, standups, and showcases.

• Maintained insight and ensured the progress of four engineering teams' deliverables.
• Coached directly and through other leaders the 25+ engineers in my organization.
• Implemented multiple processes that minimized redundant work, ensured critical issues were addressed, and balanced immediate and long-term needs.
• Set the technical direction and vetted overall architecture improvements within my functional group.

• Lead the team that implemented our in-house claims system and imported existing claims from an external vendor in a three-month window.
• Oversaw the work and reviewed the code of members of my team during the weekly sprint cycles.
• Triaged bugs and maintained systems during the weekly rotations.

• Implemented features across the full stack, from the Ruby on Rails backend through to the React client-side application.

• Designed and programmed multicomponent service-oriented web applications using various frameworks and design patterns.
• Wrapped external web services into common interfaces for modular designs.
• Diagnosed and tuned large datastores for sub-second response times.
• Installed and supported containerized deployments inside corporate and cloud environments.

• Involved in all aspects of the development of the company's primary desktop application, including design, development, and testing.
• Wrote a finite element analysis package, that accounted for geometric non-linearities, catenary wires, pre-stressed components, and temperature effects to determine loading and stresses in utility pole structures.

• Managed the team responsible for the development, maintenance, and support of the company's software products.
• Served as the primary technical contact for internal design processes and external customer interactions.
• Implemented continuous integration testing, code review, and feature development cycles to support a more robust development process.

• Designed, built, and tested small electronic devices for use in structural health monitoring applications.
• Programmed in MATLAB and C to control external hardware for data acquisition and analysis.
• Developed a sensor diagnostic algorithm for use with piezoelectric sensor/actuators and implemented it in software.

• Constructed both two and three dimensional finite element models of aircraft engine parts for modeling heat transfer, stress, and life.
• Automated boundary condition application through the programming of macros in ANSYS.

• Worked as part of a multi-disciplinary team to implement an algorithm that used natural frequencies to detect damage in a structure.
• Correlated test results to a theoretical model for plant identification and controller implementation.

• Programmed a climate chamber measurement system using Visual Basic to improve data collection and decrease measurement time by eighty percent.
• Developed a test protocol and programmed measurement systems to qualify new magnetic anti-lock brake sensors.
• Designed and constructed fixtures for testing existing products within magnetic fields.

• Designed and constructed prototype devices for use in treating heart disease that led to a device being taken to market.
• Performed primary testing and qualification before product release for both endoscopic and open surgery devices.
