Work Experience

  • Senior Javascript Developer, Tokenized

    May, 2020 - Present

    Tokenized is a Bitcoin wallet for issuing, managing and trading digital tokens. I built out the front end which was packaged as an electron app. It was a difficult frontend to build because we store the users keys locally and used them to sign transactions and contracts.

    • Redux

    • SCSS

    • Product

  • Senior Javascript Developer, Blockbid

    Mar, 2018 - Jan, 20201 year 10 months

    Blockbid is an Australian crypto currency exchange. I started off on the frontend but eventually became lead tech and worked on every moving piece of the exchange. I really enjoyed working with liquidity providers and connecting their platforms to help us achieve liquid markets.

    • React, Apollo, Styled Components

    • Node.js / Rails

    • Docker / Heroku / GCP

    • Used Figma for design and UX work

    • Optimizing markets with tens of millions of rows using SQL.

  • Developer, Listium

    Jan, 2016 - Jan, 20182 years

    Built a very large and complex React / Redux application. It works on all platforms and has IOS/Android builds due to it being a PWA. (wrapped it in React Native though only implementing a WebView)

    • Worked with Postgres, Redis and Dynamodb for storage.

    • Hosted on a mixture of Heroku Apps and EC2 servers.

    • Caching by Fastly and Cloudflare

  • Joey Flores, Co-founder and CEO of Earbits, Inc.

    Thomas was hired as a lead developer and, upon the leaving of our co-founder took over as CTO of Earbits. Thomas is, hands down, one of those A Players you hear of companies dying to hire. He is incredibly smart, not just at code but about everything from classical music to Chinese language and culture. Thomas is great to work with and, as a well established contributor to open source projects and several successful ventures, commands the respect of engineers at all levels. I would suggest doing anything you can to have him on your team.
