First off, the people. If I didn’t have the team that I work with on a daily basis, none of what I do daily would be as enjoyable and fulfilling as it currently is. From a professional perspective – throughout my career, I’ve worked in many industries, but being able to work in a vertical that allows me to impact people’s lives in an enduring way drives a different type of motivation. I’m constantly motivated to work towards more positive outcomes for everyone who interacts with the Honorlock platform.

What are your main responsibilities at Honorlock?

My focus has always been the intersection of humanity and technology. I have always tried to avoid building fancy technology if it doesn’t improve the lives of those that use it. The goal is always to understand what people want, then try to distill that into what they actually need (often, there are many unsaid things hidden between the lines of a customer request). During my time here at Honorlock, I have led the technical team in ensuring that we stay true to that mission.

What has been your favorite project so far?

It’s hard to pick a specific project, but I can much more easily point to a period of time – the height of the pandemic. At this time, the world was put in a position to move all things online in a matter of weeks, with no time to prepare. During that time, a small team of Honorlock engineers was able to overcome mountains of adversity to be able to support hypergrowth at a level that is truly rare to experience in any industry. We needed to figure out how to support proctors, support, CSMs, instructors, students & the underlying platform through the improvement/addition of product features and functionality… all at the same time.

Though I live and breathe technical solutions, I actually graduated from an art school which is typically seen as the complete opposite of a technical-minded person.

How has your career grown since starting at Honorlock?

In my time here, the pandemic forced Honorlock to go from a small, scrappy, 40-person startup to a mature growth stage 150+ person company in a dramatically shortened time period. This has forced me to grow personally and professionally in how I look at and approach problems to ensure that I am thinking at least 12 months ahead in all decisions I make as a technical leader.

What are you most excited about in your future with Honorlock?

I’m very excited to continue driving the technology to a place where we are leading the academic integrity space not only in higher education, but also as a leader in continued learning across all industries.

The people around me continually motivate me to get up every morning and keep pushing initiatives forward.

What are your main responsibilities at Honorlock?

At 4 years in, I believe I am the official OG in Engineering, which means that I know where most of the bodies are buried (there is a good chance I buried a good number of them… lol). Outside of leading development efforts and architecting new features, I also provide the history of why current features work the way they work and how they evolved to their current state. I am also an internal champion of YAGNI.

What has been your favorite project so far?

I’m currently driving an initiative to completely overhaul the internal HL dashboard. The dashboard has been begging to be updated for years and in its current state, it provides a very poor development experience when we need to make updates or add new features. The overhaul will introduce new developer tooling that will go a long way in bettering the development experience, which in turn will increase the quality of the features that the team puts out. Working with new toys is always a lot of fun!

What’s something most people at Honorlock don’t know about you?

I love spicy food. I mean really spicy. Like I have an expletive level of spiciness. Anyone that knows my love for spicy foods no longer trusts me when I tell them that something is not spicy. Essentially my taste buds are dead and they can’t be trusted to gauge the spice level of food for a “normal” person, my wife has made this mistake many times.

What do you love most about being part of the Honorlock team?

I love being challenged. Not only does the product itself provide fun and interesting challenges, but the high level of talent on the development team forces me to bring my A-game each and every day.

How has your career grown since starting at Honorlock?

With almost a 4 year tenure here at Honorlock, I have not only grown as a software developer but also as a person. Even when going through hard transitions, the feeling of unity remains strong.

What do you love most about being part of the Honorlock team?

The culture! I believe that the Honorlock team is full of collaborative and hardworking people.

How has your career grown since starting at Honorlock?

Having previously come from a marketing agency, one of the downsides of that kind of work is that there isn’t much room for input. Oftentimes, you’re just building what a client has requested, and thus, it lacks any kind of creative input. At Honorlock, I feel like my opinions/ideas are heard and valued.

What are you most excited about in your future with Honorlock?

The room for growth. I’m new to the higher education industry and I feel that there’s so much to learn.

What are your main responsibilities at Honorlock?

My current position at Honorlock is as a QA Engineer, and essentially, I test new features that are introduced to the client-facing side of the product. Me and the other QA on the External, or “Outpost”, Team work closely with the developers to test tickets and bug fixes in order to validate that they are ready for our clients to use.

The project I have enjoyed testing for the most at Honorlock would be the Search and Destroy feature. In my two years here, I have watched this feature grow vastly and I am proud to say that I have helped test and offer suggestions to ensure that it works in the best way possible for our instructors. I hope to work on some projects in the future, as I have voiced ideas internally with my team that can potentially improve the way test takers and test administrators use our product, so I hope those will be coming down the pipeline shortly, stay tuned.

Definitely the people, I have met so many great people throughout my time in Honorlock on the support, QA, and PED teams.

I have created genuine bonds with many employees at Honorlock, and this has only strengthened the work we put out to the public because nobody wants to let anyone down and we help build each other up where needed.

How has your career grown since starting at Honorlock?

Considering that I started out in support here at Honorlock two years ago in April of 2020, I would say my career has grown exponentially. I worked my way through support and earned a role where I was able to connect directly with the instructors and school admins who required assistance with their Honorlock inquiries. After a while in Admin Support, I moved over to the PED team under the role of QA Engineer, and ever since then, I have worked with the External Facing Personas “Outpost” team where I log and test bugs & feature changes.

What are you most excited about in your future with Honorlock?

Being on the External Facing Personas “Outpost” team, I get to see a lot of the great new features and ideas that we have potentially coming through the pipeline. I can’t say what exact feature I am excited for most since it would just be too hard to narrow down, but I can say that I am very excited to work with my team and with my QAs to test and make any improvements to ensure that the best product will be going live to our customers. I hope to grow as best I can to keep up with our vastly improving team and product.

What motivates you to wake up every morning and make an impact at Honorlock?

As far back as I can remember, I’ve always been into solving puzzles, for example, those metal ones that you need to find a way to pull apart and then put back together.

There is definitely a lot to choose from. My favorite was working on the security initiative where the focus was on improving the security of our platform, there were big challenges in terms of the features we wanted to implement and it was a great collaborative effort to get everything done.

The biggest motivating factor is working with the amazing team we have. Being able to collaborate with a group that’s always willing to tackle challenges of any size with the mindset that we will come out of it in a better position.

What are your main responsibilities at Honorlock?

I am here to help drive the tech direction to keep us in a place where we can grow, scale and adapt as needed. A large aspect of it is developing expertise with the people around me so we can grow as an organization, not just individually.

What has been your favorite project so far?

The thing I’m most excited about is seeing how our team grows and adapts as we continue pushing the boundaries every day.

What motivates you to wake up every morning and make an impact at Honorlock?

My motivation to ensure that I am doing my best each day with Honorlock comes from a variety of sources. In large part, I’m motivated by the fantastic team members that I work with each day. Their desire to make our product as successful as it can be helps push my own motivation forward. I also find that the work we do within Honorlock is very challenging and rewarding to implement. We handle so many unique topics and goals within the realm of what we are attempting to accomplish with our application.

What are your main responsibilities at Honorlock?

I work as a software developer on the external personal team, The Outpost, for the Product and Engineering Department of Honorlock. My main responsibilities include researching, planning, and developing solutions to address features and bug fixes required for Honorlock’s online proctoring software. At the moment, I work very closely with the front end of our tech stack. This usually involves handling UI development, making sure the UX of our application is built to the specifications of our designers, and working toward making sure our work is taking accessibility into account.

What has been your favorite project so far?

My favorite project that I’ve helped develop at Honorlock so far has been the student toolbar. I was given the opportunity to helm that project starting with a hackathon week that was held by the engineering department in March of this year. The development goals for the toolbar came from a desire for minimizing end-user confusion on elements such as the calculator or exam guidelines that were somewhat inaccessible to users after launching an exam. It’s easily the most complex piece of code that I’ve written in my career, and I always relish the opportunity to jump back into that part of the codebase to make improvements.

What’s something most people at Honorlock don’t know about you?

I am a huge advocate for discussing mental health issues and helping to destigmatize the conversation around mental health in our society. As an individual who has had their fair share of mental health struggles throughout their life, I make sure to not shy away from discussion about concerns such as depression, anxiety, burnout, and others. Thankfully, I’m at a point in life where my own mental health issues have been quelled, and I feel comfortable opening up about how I have dealt with them throughout life. Equally, this attitude is what helps motivate me to keep in consideration topics that Honorlock tries to address on a daily basis, such as alleviating student test anxiety when working with our application.

It all amounts to building a fantastic team culture that is inviting, caring, and helps motivate the day to day of what we are attempting to accomplish.

How has your career grown since starting at Honorlock?

My career has grown exponentially since starting at Honorlock. I joined Honorlock with the goal of working in a more technical role. At my previous companies, I was working as a lead developer for small teams and helming many of the projects that those companies contracted. Those opportunities helped round out my soft skill set, as I was constantly in charge of various duties such as project management, hiring, and consulting with clients along with my technical duties. That said, working in such a jack-of-all trades position didn’t allow me to grow as quickly as I’d like in a technical manner. My role at Honorlock has allowed me to develop my technical skill set quickly. I’m very happy with the amount of knowledge I’ve acquired around both front end and back end technologies.

What are you most excited about in your future with Honorlock?

This might sound odd, but I really love proofreading and making sure our verbiage is accessible, accurate, and easy to understand. Folks have come to me to ask me to proofread any and all materials, and I really enjoy it. I love writing and reading, so even with technology or customer service based things-it’s exciting to make sure what we are putting out there makes sense and is accurate.

What’s something most people at Honorlock don’t know about you?

What has been your favorite project so far?

This may not qualify as a project in the most technical sense, and it is still ongoing… but I’ll have to say growing the team has been a truly rewarding experience. In the summer, we split the development team into multiple delivery teams with many roles to be filled for a team to be ideally complete. Since then, Quality roles on all the teams have been filled and processes around their workflows are better defined so all can continue to deliver at scale.

What’s something most people at Honorlock don’t know about you?

I’m team pineapple on pizza.

It has been a great experience and looking forward to continuing to grow here at Honorlock.
