As Groupon continued its immense growth, this team stayed 100% focused on scaling up our main Rails site to handle more traffic and load. As Groupon's engineering teams started launching more and more independent services, the performance team expanded its role to provide guidance, consulting, and technical ombudsmanship.

• Design and implementation of our CDN-based caching system
• Deployment and optimization of hardware in services in our California and Switzerland datacenters
