Staff Software Engineer at Intuit
Built and scaled the Intuit Design System — 100+ components, Figma plugins, and AI-assisted tooling adopted across QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma, and Mailchimp — after leading passkey adoption and agentic AI prototyping for Intuit’s Identity Authentication Experiences team.
Today: the Intuit Design System
My first two years at Intuit were on the Design System team, building and maintaining 100+ reusable components used across QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma, and Mailchimp. I built the theming layer that let each product apply its own brand — colors, type, spacing — on top of the same shared components, so teams got consistency without giving up their product identity.
On the Design System team
Reusable components
Products on the library
Storybook & office hours
I owned the team's Storybook as the source of truth for usage guidance and accessibility notes, and held weekly office hours to help other engineering teams integrate and adopt the library — the same component-first, Storybook-driven habits I carried into the Identity org afterward.
Figma tooling & on-call
Beyond the components themselves, I built internal Figma plugins that synced design tokens and component specs directly from Figma into the library, and piloted AI-assisted tooling to speed up the design-to-code handoff for partner teams. Components pulled configuration from GraphQL and REST endpoints with client-side instrumentation to track adoption, and I was the primary on-call point of contact for the design system, owning production support and SLAs for the products built on top of it.
Leading Passkeys across Intuit
I led the passkeys initiative across Intuit, architecting and shipping 8 cross-product frontend launches with a team of 5 engineers — streamlined registration, post-enrollment education, and a centralized post-auth surface for managing sign-in methods.
The rollout drove passkey adoption from 10% to 26% of active Intuit customers, meaningfully strengthening Intuit's phishing-resistant authentication posture across the platform.
Alongside passkeys, I shipped digital ID (mDL) verification, letting customers prove their identity with the driver's license or ID already saved in their phone's wallet instead of manually uploading a document photo — a faster path through identity verification with fewer drop-offs.

Cross-identity SSO for Amazon partnerships
I built Intuit's first cross-identity SSO: QuickBooks embedded directly inside Amazon's domain, with Intuit authentication handled cross-domain so a seller never leaves Amazon to sign in. Getting an identity provider to work from inside someone else's origin is the hard part — the eligibility design that came out of it is now the canonical framework for onboarding future partnerships.
Owning the integration lifecycle from discovery through production across 4+ org boundaries drove 100K+ gross new subscribers from Amazon Business Prime and a positive incremental activation lift from Amazon Seller Central, with zero escalations.

Agentic AI & MCP
I currently lead the agentic AI track for Intuit Identity, integrating MCP-based agent authentication. I built hands-on LLM-powered prototypes demonstrating agentic workflows against production identity APIs, defined protocol-level guidance for non-human principals, and unblocked 3 teams building agentic experiences on top of it.
AI-assisted engineering
I also lead the AI-assisted engineering track for the Identity frontend org — running workshops and demos that introduced Claude, Claude Skills, agents, and agent-context-building workflows, yielding an estimated 3x velocity improvement for the team.
Identity 2.0: the GraphQL migration
For Identity 2.0 I migrated 40 REST endpoints spanning 20 signup and account-manager flows onto GraphQL, leading 8 engineers across backend, frontend, and product through it. Collapsing that many flows onto one schema is what bought the scalability headroom and an 85% GTM velocity gain, and the migration SOPs we set became the pattern other products followed.

Performance Improvements
I also led a performance track that cut P95 latency by 56% (account selector: 8s → 3.5s, account manager: 11s → 7.2s) through bundle splitting, lazy loading, and render optimization, and I maintain the Storybook environment across 10+ identity repositories that lets Design and PM partners prototype, validate, and sign off on identity experiences before anything ships.
