• Designed, implemented, and tested import/export of complex video sequences via Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) for a cutting-edge, cloud-based video editing system written in Java and C++.• Rapidly resolved urgent customer issues with bug fixes and/or new features for Avid Media Composer, the industry-leading video editing application written in C++. Customers included CBS, NBC, ABC, and other major television and movie studios.• Focused on data management issues such as interfacing with third-party hardware and software, import/export, translating between different data storage schemes, working around bugs and limitations in third-party systems, etc.

Designed and implemented an object-oriented, multi-threaded, fault-tolerant, load-balanced distributed server engine. The engine was comprised of transaction routers and transaction processors; any number of either could run on any number of machines, and they collaborated together to process client requests. If any of the machines were to go down, client requests would still be fulfilled by the remaining machines. The engine was written in Python, using TCP sockets and an XML-based communication protocol to support user authentication, encryption, sessions, interactive transactions, and scheduled batch jobs.Architect and programmer for a new airline reservation system while continuing to maintain and develop new features for an older one. Both systems serviced all facets of an airline's operation, including reservations, flight scheduling, gate operations, revenue management, mileage tracking, and interfacing with third-party systems. The new system also included internationalization, a hierarchical permissions scheme, and a development API for third-party developers.System administrator for the 12 Linux machines dedicated to the airline management system, including live, test, and development machines.

Development of web-based data management software for small companies. PHP and MySQL.

Designed and developed an object-oriented Java servlet to accept, parse, validate, and process XML requests, update an Oracle database through JDBC, and return a response XML document. This servlet would assist hotel owners in revenue management when servicing group reservations.Also wrote documentation for the servlet, including installation procedures and training materials. Trained others in the use of the servlet.

• C++ and Java enterprise application development.• Developed manual acceptance testing plans.• Python scripting for internal test result filing tools.
