- Maintained and enhanced existing components of the management subsystem of HP LeftHand’s storage virtualization solution.- Developed C++ components for a new REST based management API for the StoreVirtual system. Several of these components made heavy use of C++ templates to reduce code duplication.- Developed C++ components to allow current product to work with Microsoft’s System Center Virtual Machine Manager using a SMIS/CIM based API.- Set up an an extensive unit testing framework for the C++ components described above, using multiple technologies. These technologies included googletest and googlemock for writing the tests, gcov for performing coverage analysis, and valgrind for checking memory errors. The testing was automated using the Jenkins continuous integration platform.- Developed some JavaScript/HTML5 components for a new web-based management GUI for the StoreVirtual system which interacted with the REST API on the back end.- Developed Java based automated functional tests for new GUI described above. These tests were written for the TestNG unit testing framework and used the Selenium WebDriver web automation library.

- Technical lead for a globally distributed team that developed a new, Adobe Flash Player based version of web GUI for existing Command View TL product.- Developed very loosely coupled, highly testable application architecture in Adobe Flex 4, which was built on top of the open source Parsley framework. This in turn enabled team to use a test-driven development approach from the project beginning.- Developed a continuous integration solution based on the Jenkins open source tool that performed unit testing (using FlexUnit) and coverage analysis for the new GUI software, and also performed nightly building and packaging of product.

- Designed and implemented several multithreaded components of a new generation of HP’s enterprise tape library firmware. The design phase involved extensive use of UML diagramming tools. Implemented in C++ on an embedded Linux system, using SQLite based database for data persistence, and gSOAP for communication with our Java-based front end GUI.- Helped maintain and enhance existing firmware used in HP’s enterprise tape libraries.- Designed and implemented parts of a solution for integrating encryption key management appliances with HP’s tape libraries.

- Wrote software in C++ that understood physical byte layout of data on disk. This software was used by SCSI XCOPY command to copy data directly from one storage device to another, without involving operating system.- Designed and implemented several portions of a large, multi-tier tape media management and tracking system. This included pieces of IPC plumbing written in C++ and Java, as well as parts of the user interface, written in a proprietary 4GL.

- Designed and implemented middle-tier business ActiveX objects written in Visual Basic and the Active Template Library.- User interface design and implementation for Automotive Parts catalog publication system using Visual Basic.- Back-end Oracle database design and implementation.

- Working as an independent contractor for Hewlett-Packard, continued development work begun at Dega Technology, relevant to the Ford parts catalog display system (see below).- Became involved in maintaining and enhancing the end-user Ford product, which entailed extensive programming in Microsoft Windows.- Assisted in the development of various terminal emulators running under Windows.

- Wrote complex programs in C and embedded SQL to process data from automotive parts catalogs, mainly those of Ford Motor Co., to be used by an end-user publication display system running under Microsoft Windows 3.x.- Interviewed customers with regards to how their information should be presented to the user.
