• Worked with vendors to develop a RESTful API that delivers training data for AI algorithms. Sole developer for its security infrastructure, using standards such as JAX-RS and JSON Web Tokens. Documented API using OpenAPI.• Led the implementation of an abstraction layer for AI models. Sole developer of a pre-processing module, written in C++, which stretched the dynamic range of an image and significantly improving model performance. Implemented CI/CD concepts using GitLab, allowing for code to be continuously compiled and scanned for vulnerabilities.• Implemented an orchestration layer for AI processing using Bash scripts and Python. The code managed a Kubernetes pod’s lifecycle and determine the optimal Kubernetes configuration based on available compute.• Developed a post-processing layer, written in Python, which coordinated the linking of AI track data. Containerized the code using Docker and deployed it onto a Kubernetes cluster which supported downrange mission activity.

• Developed a processing workflow within TomEE, using JMS and Message-Driven beans. Implemented each bean’s processing logic, included virus scanning, Exif metadata extraction, thumbnail generation, and data upload.• Led the technical integration for a secure, accredited government network. Responsible for integrating web applications behind a reverse proxy, requiring expert knowledge of web protocols, browser policies and debugging techniques. Implemented single sign-on solutions using standards such as SAML, as well as coding custom solutions with Java and JavaScript.• Manager of the integration team for a project that provides technology solutions to Special Forces and law enforcement. Provided guidance to software developers and performed management functions such as maintaining project schedules, task prioritization, time reporting, and performance reviews.• Developed data triage and upload tools to assist customers with knowledge discovery. The tools allowed the user to sort and filter data before uploading results to an Oracle database. The tools were multi-threaded and scalable, making heavy use of Java concurrency constructs such as blocking queues and latches.• Sole developer of software that performs data collection and forensic analysis on computers and smartphones. Java code written as a collection of dynamically discoverable modules built upon the OSGi framework. Designed and implemented GUI written in Swing and deployed software to handheld UMPCs. Conducted customer briefings and demonstrations and wrote architecture documents adhering to DoDAF standards.

• Extensive development with SharePoint 2007, including custom WebParts. Built a GUI, written in C#, which uses the SharePoint deployment API to migrate content from one server to another.• Developed user interface with Visual C# that integrated third-party search and clustering algorithms to perform analysis of unstructured text. Developed framework using MVC design pattern, making use of localization, reflection, threading and events.• Team lead for two development threads. Conducted performance reviews, assisted in staff changes and provided technical guidance to team members. Managed release schedule, prioritized and assigned tasks, tracked software defects, gathered user feedback and conducted training.• Developed software suite for integrating categorization engines. Framework implemented with JBoss using JMX services and JMS. Interfaced with database via Hibernate API. Created administration web application with JSP and Struts. Successfully deployed and supported application in operational environment.• Developed a knowledge discovery web application using JSP, Struts and JavaScript. Built custom model layer which integrated third-party tools such as search engines, concept analysis, ArcIMS and software agents.

• Led and mentored the Web Services Group while serving as the team’s interface to product management. Assigned tasks to team members, managed product timeline, and ensured deadlines were met.• Sole developer of a collaboration component, written using Java Swing and AWT, which became a main focus of product. Wrote accompanying backend server APIs using optimized JDBC and delivered results via JMS.• Designed and developed a component framework that encapsulated EJBs. Framework responsible for optimistic concurrency control, interfacing with security, loading and persisting data, and object caching.• Participated in a specialized team focused on server performance improvement. Located performance bottlenecks using Optimizeit. Moved slower business logic to the database using PL/SQL. Improved performance by 50 percent.• Contributed to initial development environment including build system, environment scripts, application logging, a generic pooling framework, EJB server purchase, and a performance monitoring tool.

Richmond, Virginia, United States

• Developed a multi-threaded server in C/C++ that communicated with an MVS system using MQSeries.• Designed and developed a socket-based server written in C/C++ that communicated with a Tandem machine. The access server was one of the most highly used components of the call center’s middleware architecture.• Developed and maintained an in-house application server that was responsible for call center’s business logic and transaction management. Improved server efficiency by 25 percent.
