-------------:TL;DR:-------------I was responsible for a well-designed and well-tested Big Data API for a Doctor-Facing application, and acting as technical representative to succinctly explain software and advantages to potential clients. As a result, the startup gained investment of $5MM from covenant health, and is under intensive further development.-------------:ROLE:------------- Software Developer, Software Representative-------------:GOALS:-------------* Create an App that Harnesses ORNL-developed Big Data algorithms for Medical Field.* Court potential clients.-------------:ACTIONS:-------------* Wrote Rails API with automated testing for a Document Clustering algorithm written in Java. Worked closely with mobile developer to ensure API was well-usable and documented clearly.* Gave input on design and usage of mobile application, considering target market and future potential uses of technology.* Made efficiency/usability tweaks to document clustering algorithm written in Java, interfacing it more intimately with Apache Solr.* Managed Devops; deployed and maintained required mobile-accessible servers using platforms including: AWS, Heroku, and Digital Ocean.* Participated in GIGTANK as technical representative, developed the mobile app further with team based on mentor advice, explained the advantages of the document clustering algorithms to potential clients.-------------:RESULTS:-------------As a result, the startup gained several client leads, one of which led to an investment of $5MM from covenant health, and is under intensive further development.-------------:RELEVANT SKILLS:-------------Web DesignGUIsScalable DesignCloud Computing ArchitectureSystem ArchitectureDevops/SysopsGUI / Frontend Software

Refactoring bottlenecked C++ code used to run a novel Artificial Neural Network (ANN) architecture, reading works related to ANN's while developing personal research interests, coauthoring IEEE-Style ANN research papers to be sent to conferences.

- Co-Inventor / Lead Developer / Programmer Problem Estimated Cost: $100,000 per annum (not including safety costs) Solution ROI: 400%. Invented, developed, and programmed a novel Visual Inventory Placement System in C#, involving .NET DDE/OPC Communication with PLC-driven LED and Photo-eye sensors, a sleek GUI made with Windows Forms, Motorola Scanner Communication, and inventory search features. LED visual indication was used for forklift operators' convenience, Photo-eye sensors were used for correct inventory placement, and Motorola Scanners for data entry. Currently pursuing Patent.-Developer / Programmer, Item Identification Barcode and Face Sheet Generator Invented developed and programmed an Excel VBA application that presented a GUI to the user to simplify rote inventory data entry and formatting, and generated a Standardized barcode to be placed on the inventory, to be used in the above project (Visual Inventory Placement System)-Developer / Programmer, PLC Data Historian for Maintenance Developed Python GUI that used DDE/OPC to extract user-specified data from PLC's and output it in an Excel spreadsheet, for further examination later. -Code Reviewer, Motorola Scanner Implementation Reviewed C code for wireless barcode scanning implementation, checking for bugs.-Developer / Programmer, General Excel Macro Assistance Helped coworkers sort through their data using simple VBA commands to find keywords and pluck out most recurrent themes from raw excel data.

Formulated required sample masses, measured and prepared samples for firing, maintained laboratory equipment.
