• Senior Software Cloud Engineer on Agile Development team in Cardiac Rhythm and Monitoring to update legacy (.NET 4.0 to .NET 6, 8) systems, and containerize them as Kubernetes Microservices to run in a new AWS Cloud based infrastructure.• Responded to issues affecting customers in production by coordinating with support teams as part of "You Build It You Run It", coding, validating and deploying fixes • Performed release night tasks for team code including coordination, testing and deployment to production• Contributed to Best Practices and Workflow, K8s setup and configuration for local development & debugging, development work on service & client(s) migration to K8s, Azure pipeline fixes and improvements for deployments to help other teams• Knowledge shared with team members on new cloud technology stack and git as well as coding industry best practices and techniques

• Senior Engineer on Agile Development team for Cardiac Rhythm and Monitoring system to prepare legacy (.NET 4.0) systems for AWS Cloud migration.• Responsibilities included development work, code reviews, mentoring junior team members and contributing to architecture discussions and decisions for the team.• Designed and wrote AES-256 encryption algorithm and scripts to be used in an ongoing clinical trial to generate daily reports of sensitive patient information for clinicians and researchers.• Implemented database updates and retention changes in order to improve performance and reduce costs of hosting databases in a Cloud environment.• Additionally, served as QA Verification Test lead for the team which included representing the team at all release and coordination meetings, designing and executing formal release test plans, triaging test failures, authoring bugs and validating fixes.

• Senior Software Engineer at Dell Compellent on the Storage Center Smoke Testing team which owned and updated an automated Java based Smoke Test suite to exercise software & hardware features of an enterprise SAN system across multiple concurrent development branches & configurations.• Test Improvements included refactoring test suite to use an internal API to interface with test hardware, changing to asynchronous calls to reduce network failures / timeouts, and integrated JMS messaging using ActiveMQ to allow message processing for test status and monitoring commands (Test Pass/Fail, Pause, Resume, etc). • Acted as “Build Meister” for overnight builds across multiple concurrent development branches as part of CI / CD process; responsibilities included triaging automated test failures, authoring bugs, making a determination for build/branch health based on automated test results from the latest build and authoring daily branch health reports for a broad audience.• Updated and maintained test equipment for this test suite including SAN administration, rack setup (FC, iSCSI, SAS) and configuration of hardware to run the continuous test suite. • Hardware lab Improvements included optimizing hardware distributions to expand platform coverage for test iterations and transitioning physical servers to Virtual front-end servers using VMWare ESXi - leading to space and cost savings.

• Collaborated with external partners developing plugins to integrate with an enterprise level backup and recovery software platform, in order to interface with their unique hardware storage configuration. Held regular meetings to discuss API implementation, development challenges, current defects and resolutions and future roadmaps. Included triage and resolution of internal defects discovered during the plugin development process.• Managed defect tracking and resolution for a large area of product code for internally and externally discovered defects. Included interfacing with customers, field engineers, internal developers and testers to help diagnose and more effectively resolve the issue.• Worked as part of a team of developers to design and implement multi-threaded features for a backup and recovery product. Principal responsibilities included working on test infrastructure and optimizing older code in preparation for new development changes.• Automated manual regression tests as part of a highly productive AGILE team using Perl scripts and an internally developed automation engine. This included new test cases and groups of tests, re-working existing automation infrastructure and tests, adding support for new commands or options, and collaboratively testing and verifying new automation fit the intent of the original test.

• Designed and developed a stand-alone research patient data collection tool used by physicians and clinicians in active clinical research trials. This software was used to intelligently gather patient data using branching decision paths and would adjust questions deterministically, and would assist physicians in determining treatment decisions for patients. This software also gathered data from clinical visits to be analyzed for research purposes and later published.• Maintained and updated a workplace safety research website used by a group of clinicians to gather data from clients and recommend treatment based on surveys. Notable improvements included expanded survey capabilities, increased reporting and analysis verbosity.
