Lead Programmer
Decatur, Ga
As the lead software developer & designer at Virtually Better, Inc., I helped implement the SCRUM agile development methodology, which resulted in a roughly 15% increase in both productivity and workflow. I am responsible for training, orienting, and supervising new personnel and was able to reduce staff turnover by helping to employ individuals who complimented company culture. I improved the company’s workflow and the product development and distribution process by introducing and implementing Continuous Integration & Deployment using TeamCity as well as by redesigning the company’s server architecture.I developed and released user-installable and immersive (virtual reality) applications for Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and other platforms using a wide range of technologies, including C# (Unity3D), Java, Objective-C, PHP, Node.js, and Python. I also was involved in integrating and testing devices that interacted with application software, such as: HMDs, USB game controllers, audio input/output, etc. I helped manage the company’s test-release-distribution/installation process. Additionally, I collaborated with both large and small, creative and research teams to develop new design concepts.
