Former Design Technologist at Amazon.com
As a Design Technologist, Matthew worked on a global team at Amazon.com that focused on the conception, prototyping, and execution of custom interactive experiences across platforms. The team provided creative and technical expertise re: UX, software design, development, iterative prototyping and performance to help inform decisions through their deep understanding of the underlying technologies. The team experimented, designed, developed, and shipped custom products that surprise and delight Amazon customers.

"I like to lead. I don't mean the uber-bossy, power hungry, egotistical kind of leader that nobody wants to work with. I mean the type of leader that understands and respects people's talents and time; the kind of person that cultivates talents and cares about their team while still managing the needs of a successful business unit. That's the type of person I commit to being every day."
"In recognition of your innovative thinking and contribution to our technology... Congratulations on being an Amazon inventor!"
- Jeff Bezos
Featured Work U.S. PATENT 10,769,701 B1
Awarded: US Patent 10,769,701 B1 for the technology stack and application of "Sensory-Based Delivery of Content."
The sound of a shaking box of LEGOs is nostalgic and represents endless possibilities of creativity and imagination. We gave our customers that same classic feeling in a shopping experience they can only experience on Amazon.
The customer selects an age range and a statement describing the child they are shopping for. After a quick shake of the device (and an audible/haptic reminder of what a shaking box of LEGOs sounds like), a curated, relevant gift recommendation is presented. The customer can repeatedly shake and keep receiving new recommendations until all gifts relevant to the inputs have been shown.
