Sigma Space
Web Developer
I programmed NASA's Earth
Observatory website from scratch (version 2.0, 2009). This entailed
writing multiple complex PERL scripts to ingest 10 years of website data
into a redesigned database schema and filesystem. To provide the staff of
writers and data visualizers the ability to fully manage the website, I
developed a highly customized content management system from the ground
up. All the while, I taught myself to fill the role of systems
administrator for the small server cluster, configured for high
availability and redundancy. I also built the first
custom content management systems and redesigned the public facing
websites for NASA's Atmospheric Science Research Portal and Hydrospheric
and Biospheric Science Research Portal.
