Evidence shaped by the work

Selected work, explained with clarity.

Representative experience across software engineering, cybersecurity, infrastructure, networks, and applied AI education.

Selected engagements

A closer look at how capability becomes outcome.

These representative engagements translate David’s professional experience into the kinds of problems DoDave helps clients solve. They are capability stories, not named client case studies.

Secure full-stack application delivery
Software engineering

Secure full-stack application delivery

The context

Product teams needed reliable web applications, accurate data flows, and backend services that could scale with delivery.

The work

Led full-stack development, REST API design, backend logic validation, data-integrity reviews, automation scripts, and daily code reviews across JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, Python, and SQL workflows.

The value

Clearer engineering standards, more dependable application delivery, and a security-first foundation for product teams.

Web application security and hardening
Cybersecurity

Web application security and hardening

The context

Teams needed to identify vulnerabilities, improve secure coding practices, and protect communication between applications and cloud services.

The work

Conducted security assessments and code audits, investigated server-side issues and logs, recommended fixes for risks such as XSS, CSRF, and SQL injection, and applied threat-modeling and hardening principles.

The value

A more visible risk posture, stronger remediation decisions, and application teams better equipped to build securely.

Infrastructure and network operations
Infrastructure & networks

Infrastructure and network operations

The context

Operational environments needed reliable systems, connected devices, clear documentation, and monitoring that could support day-to-day continuity.

The work

Maintained PCs, servers, networks, databases, printers, and peripherals; worked with Cisco routing and switching concepts including MPLS, BGP, OSPF, CEF, and QoS; and used Nagios XI and PRTG for monitoring and supervision.

The value

More dependable operations, better troubleshooting context, and infrastructure decisions grounded in observable system health.

Applied AI workshops and prompt systems
AI training

Applied AI workshops and prompt systems

The context

Professionals and teams needed practical ways to use generative AI without losing quality, brand consistency, privacy, or control.

The work

Designed and delivered modular AI content-creation and prompt-engineering workshops, built reusable prompt libraries and templates, and introduced guardrails for safer LLM workflows.

The value

100+ participants trained and content production accelerated by 40% while maintaining consistency and reducing avoidable AI risks.

How we frame the work

Useful evidence starts with a useful question.

We keep case studies grounded in decisions, actions, and the difference those actions are meant to make.

Start with the real constraintDefine what is blocking progress, not just what is visible on the surface.
Make the approach legibleShow the sequence of work so stakeholders can understand the path.
Name the changeConnect delivery to the improved confidence, resilience, or capability it enables.
