Technical lead for the suite of HERO software products. (http://www.epa.gov/hero)Work continues effort from previous position at Lockheed MartinHERO contains key studies EPA uses to develop environmental risk assessments for the public. EPA uses risk assessments to characterize the nature and magnitude of health risks to humans and the ecosystem from pollutants and chemicals in the environment. -Wrote final draft security plan which included collaborative efforts of contractors and federal staff-Created “social tagging” concept to allow more flexible representations of scientific data across projects-Oversaw automation of literature searches, imports, PDF retrieval, and tagging of references which allowed for significant growth of the database-Initiated performance improvements as database grew from 250K to over 1 million records via EHCache and SOLR-Streamlined deployment through Continuous Integration (using Jenkins), automated unit tests (MXUNIT), and regression testing (Selenium) -Implemented agile practices including (but not limited to) daily SCRUM for developers, time limited iterations for more stable release schedule, creation of an agile board-Oversaw pilot MongoDB database to collect scientific data to replace a more elaborate and difficult Entity, Attribute, Value (EAV) system that had been implemented as a hybrid with a traditional relational model-Created SOAP and REST web services to expand interoperability between HERO and other database systems. Rather than try to co-opt parallel systems, HERO publishes and consumes data in a cooperative manner-Integrated user demands created through import and additions to the HERO database with JIRA to manage workflow. JIRA is used for both internal development bug and issue tracking as well as for externally facing requests for importing, updating, and correcting data-Automated purchasing PDFs using vendor API, JIRA, and HERO

Project lead for 7 person team for the creation of a new multi-platform application that provides access to the literature that EPA reviews in the creation of environmental assessments. -Designed fully normalized database designed for growth as NCEA broadens and deepens the data that is associated with each of the 250,000+ references currently stored in the database.-Designed architectural solution to provide access to varied user communities on various platforms.-Coordinated interfaces and interoperability between and among J2EE, ColdFusion, Oracle 11g database, Oracle Portal, Oracle Identity Management.-Led requirements gathering meetings and transfer of requirements to team. -Facilitated an agile posture towards development and managed the technical progress of application from design to deployment-Supervised the creation of integrated testing and automated build process-Created Microsoft Word plug-in to replicate behavior of EndNote software with the HERO database using web services and VBA-Created standalone editor for data collection and synchronization with enterprise database using Access

IMACS This is a large scale data collection site for scientific data. Over a dozen forms are recorded for each assessment by different physicians. Data is aggregated or segregated as required for reporting. Fusebox 4 and MVC architecture employed along with extensive use of CFCs. Automation of database CRUD and modularization of form elements was implemented for maximization of code reuse.MSMANAGER This is a workflow application which tracks the internal reviews and approvals of a manuscript prior to its being submitted for external publication. It also manages public access requirements and submits accepted manuscripts to PubMed Central. Used as the model on which other major workflow applications have been built.Other Notable projects:Confocal Microscopy Workflow, Science Awards Day, MOATS redesign, MetaSys reporting, Fibroids, Research Topics

Led groups of 1-5 developers in various stages of application development lifecycle. Below is a partial list of notable projects for the Environmental Protection AgencyAIRNow Served as technical lead for AIRNow redesign. eRulemaking A high profile application that was supposed to be stable when we inherited it. After discovering significant flaws in design, collection, and delivery of comments, the team rewrote the heart of the commenting module. eProductsServed as primary architect and main developer a fully functional workflow application and centralized repository for project information. eBusiness -- ColdFusionServed as chief technical consultant during requirements phase. Following success of eProducts, EPA decided to rewrite all processes as web-based applications. RACT/BACT/LAER Clearinghouse Substantial modifications were made to this application to make it more stable and more usable including a shift of data fields and data entry interface.
