MoneyGram International is a global fintech enabling consumers and businesses to move and manage money in nearly every country around the world.My duties here are to provide technical expertise in designing, developing, and maintaining software applications as well as migrating microservices from TIBCO framework to Apache Camel framework and deploying them in the cloud.

My duty at Vodacom was to develop and lead a team of software engineers develop Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning Models necessary for digital assistants like Chatbots and Robotic Process Automation (RPA)

My duty is to work with other developers/managers to design, develop and implement policies and infrastructures that makes software development faster, more efficient and manageable. So far we have streamlined every aspect of software development, the software developers are more efficient and faster, our software are of very high standards.We have multiple projects going on at the same time and a number of developers from different parts of the world working remotely. Our technology stack is Spring boot-Java for backend, Angular 7 for frontend spiced up with HTML5, CSS3 and either bootstrap or material design. I have helped in developing Scrum as our Agile framework methodology. My work here is to develop project backlogs from Scrum master checklist, from the backlogs I develop User Stories, Features, Bugs and Tasks. We have a 2 weeks Sprint after which we deploy the cycle. We are currently using OpenProject to estimate the points in each cycle and estimate the cost and time of a project, it also helps us keep tack of developers efficiency.We host our own repositories on GitBucket and use Git as version control. We have come up with a Git branching model, the developers implement their features on feature branches, the code is reviewed before merging the feature branch to master. At the end of the sprint cycle we make a release branch from master and deploy to staging server, when testers find a bug on staging server, we create a priority bug ticket on openproject. The developers have to create hot fix branch, fix the bug and do the required merging. This workflow has helped us deliver flawless code. We have a Jenkins pipeline that does continuous integration. Jenkins listens to developers commits and does regression tests using Katalon. If the branch is release and regression tests passes, the artifacts are created and pushed to our Nexus repository manager. We are soon changing our Jenkins pipeline to use docker images. We are nearly done

Provided example patterns and example material to help developers provide good implementations. Defined standards for the organizing of configuration files (e.g. Spring boot, Angular, Postgresql)Mentored code reviews.Encouraged agile practices among the team using scrum like feature driven methodologies

Leads 2 Business have developed a huge database of daily tenders and project for the whole of Africa, data is captured on daily basis and subscribers receive the information daily. The System at L2B is mainly done in C# ASP.Net MVC and SQL Database. When i joined the company, they were looking for ways to have a more robust way to reach the mobile device users.I was multi tasking between developing the web services on ASP.Net MVC and its corresponding Android client application, I was in charge of mobile application development project for the whole of 2014. When the application was finished and launched I joined the rest of the team in developing web site with the modern web application tools. We mostly used Bootstrap as the framework on ASP.Net MVC other technologies were CSS3, HTML 5, Json, Ajax, Java Scripts and SQL.The Persistence on the database objects was Subsonic and we had other plugins for different tasks like Apache Lucene for full text search engines, windows services for Daily tasks etc.Some of the features I added on the Android app includes: Integration with google maps for "near by tenders" , Push notifications, Pay by credit card option and SQLite Cache for downloading efficiency.
