Integrated the internal PKI Authentication and Authorization system with existing web applications to ensure that only authorized users are able to perform actions and view web pages.Managed databases for web applications; inserting/deleting/updating rows and tables through the use of GUI applications and SQL scripts. Added columns to tables to keep track of the times that rows were added/modified, and by whom in order to perform better record keeping and accountability.Created web services in ASP.NET to do daily discrepancy checks between the local and remote databases, and email administrators of any compliance issues that need to be addressed.Used Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques and Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) to compare an original audio file to an Opus encoded/decoded audio file to determine a benchmark for the minimum encoder settings needed for acceptable audioTranslated an existing Pig analytic codebase to a new Java MapReduce framework which improved the project runtime by 40%.
