@types/google__earthengine · author and owner of the TypeScript support for Google Earth Engine, Google's satellite imagery platform. Pull request #75594 was approved by the development lead of the TypeScript team at Microsoft. It lives in DefinitelyTyped, the open-source project behind TypeScript for React and Node.js.
- Two products moved to AWS serverless · from MVPs on EC2 with one MongoDB database to AWS Lambda and PostgreSQL on Amazon RDS; I chose serverless to cut costs, since farm use is seasonal (Levva · client Corteva)
- Satellite NDVI monitoring · part of the field-trials platform; built from scratch in 2 months as sole engineer; first in Python (2024), moved to TypeScript in 2026
- WhatsApp AI assistant · part of the same platform; voice notes, photos and text become assessment drafts, with Amazon Bedrock, Transcribe and Twilio
- Influencer data at LOUD · owned the Twitter (Node.js) and TikTok (Python) collectors, millions of records per day
