Numerous contractual projects spanning multiple industries and technologies. Many jobs were team based and remote, and they ranged from Atmel Micro-controller programming to web based IMS development using various technologies (ex. JS/JSON/Angular, NodeJS/Java/.Net Core, SQL/NoSQL).

As the Senior Programmer in this organization I have the duty of guiding and coordinating the SDLC activities of our department. Typically activities include designing/developing automation solutions, data warehousing / data mining and analysis, and researching future directions. Research currently includes the automation of IaaS/PaaS solutions using containers (with docker), cloud based data warehousing with a data mining service API, and universal platform development strategies (Xarmarin and Cordova).

A highlight and passionate focus during this portion of my professional and academic career was the development of a ground up production Data Warehouse based on a combination of the theories presented by Ross Kimball and Bill Inmon. The completed project, still in production today, covers the entire ETL process from raw data extraction/verification to the publication of administrative reports providing actionable knowledge. During the development process technologies were made flexible through software interfaces and web services; as such various PLs and DBMS were experimented with including Java/C# service back-ends using Oracle, MS SQL, and MySQL -I also defined an extended CSV for use with a cached DB (my own high speed way of crunching millions of records quickly). During this time I also started using Model Driven Engineering theory to address change management tracking (traceability) and using meta data as both documentation and an artefact of design.

During this time I worked on numerous development projects covering a wide spectrum of technologies; Some projects were ground up builds, using Agile methodologies, but many leveraged existing Open Source platforms. To help with my Open Source development process I implemented a tool that would crawl an database schema and return an easy to read summary of tables with attribute details and relationships; unknown at the time, the exploration of this meta data would later fuel my endeavors into DW's and Model Driven Engineering.
