RouteAnchor

The field-sales CRM that fills itself in: you work the territory, and the records and follow-ups write themselves. I own it end to end, from UI/UX to the backend, and tested it every weekday on my own sales route across Idaho while working at Hanzo.

  • Plan my day drafts who's due and fits them around your Google Calendar
  • Stops ordered by real drive time, with spoken turn-by-turn in the same app
  • A ten-second note at the door becomes the visit, the note, and the follow-ups
  • Ask what a customer said last time and get an answer that cites your notes
  • React
  • TypeScript
  • React Native
  • FastAPI
  • Firestore
  • Cloud Run

Robotics tooling at Fulfil Solutions

2019–2025 · robotic order fulfillment

C# · .NET · WinForms

Recovery & diagnostics tools

15–35%uptime gain

Lead developer on the recovery, calibration, and validation apps operators and technicians used every shift: responsive multi-threaded UIs with one-click triage and remote logging.

Python · SQL · MongoDB

Live telemetry & dashboards

50%faster diagnosis

Data pipelines feeding Grafana and Power BI so operators could see machine and camera status at a glance, and leadership got a clear weekly picture of fleet health.

HIL · DAQ · Root cause

HIL validation & fleet testing

+22%MTBF

Hardware-in-the-loop rigs and limit testing, including freezer qualification down to –20 °F. Findings drove fixes for camera fogging, bearing crush, and belt failures.

Test strategy · Telemetry

Throughput redesign

~10×pick speed

Owned testing for the Rover rack movers. The telemetry I built exposed transport congestion, and those findings helped drive the move to a faster tray-shuttle architecture.

Experience

Ten-plus years across software, test engineering, and the customers who use what gets built.
