Orbitz.com (prior to going public in 2004) was one of the first companies to use high-performance distributed computing, SOA, and Web-Services for their entire enterprise stack. That was 1999-2000 before such practice was common and before standard tools were available. We used Java/Jini for literally infinite scale. Orbitz.com became THE premier travel websites of the time.Major accomplishments include:• Project Manager: Managed software/product development on Orbitz “Fares, Pricing, and Inventory System.” Worked closely with ITA Software Inc. (Cambridge, MA). Managed Master Project Plan, Requirements, SOW/SLA Agreements, and vendor status updates.• Product Analyst: Negotiated product specifications with central reservation systems, allowing Orbitz to define and test truly unique products. Negotiated special access conditions, allowing Orbitz to test products before going live. Developed, tested, and launched the industry’s first “Flexible-Traveler” tool.• Tech Lead – Orbitz.com Test Site: Designed, coded, launched, and managed the Orbitz-Live test site. Negotiated with ITA Software for preliminary access to their proprietary search data. Prepared and briefed CEO/CTO on daily results, quantifying risk in strict dollar-terms. Followed-up with “Discrepancy Reports” to all vendors/subcontractors and drove issues to technical resolution.
