How exciting period it was. During this time was involved in developing SIP based contact centre and my primary responsibility was high availability feature. Our solution is based on an eclectic mix of different technologies; Java, JNI, C++. Towards the end I become a resident expert in "low level stuff" which apart from implementing code involved analysing network logs, crash dumps and heap dumps.

Completely different experience from my previous position. Not only the office was ten times bigger, a different set of skills was required. Back to Java which was easy, developing SOAP services for our middle layer which was interesting. Performance testing of that beast was challenging to say the least. Eventually I got my solo project. An adaptor for one of Nortel's proprietary communications protocol. That was fun, project was not going quite as fast as expected but learned a lot from that experience.Also involved in some minor demonstrations and proof of concepts.
