Spearheaded a dedicated team in designing and developing a time-series database utilizing GRPC and .NET 6.Successfully transitioned a legacy web application to a modern stack using React, Redux, and ASP.NET Core.Acted as a Technical Lead, mentoring a team of developers with agile methodologies, architectural patterns, and rigorous unit testing.Played a pivotal role in the architecture team, guiding key decisions and strategic directions.

Developed a web application that includes developing a custom membership provider to connect into Atlassian Crowd, which will later synchronize with an LDAP server. Used ASP.NET(C#, MVC 3 Razor). Also used EXT JS for front end views, utilizing JSON and other custom JavaScript.Created several mobile apps that are on Android, iPhone and iPad, one of which retrieves data off of C-Tran’s website using YQL and displays an interactive bus schedule. Used HTML5, JavaScript, Sencha Touch and PhoneGap.

Jumped into an existing project and brought it across the finish line, staying within budget and needing little guidance.Part of product discoveries where we gather requirements and estimate features.I continually give feedback on ways to improve and offer myself as vehicle for positive change.Develop in C#, Web API, AngularJS, TypeScript and Bootstrap with Entity Framework Code First and deployed to Azure.Quickly familiarized myself with new technologies and instantly became a valuable asset to the team.I have weekly discussions with clients to demo functionality while also consuming feedback.

Senior developer on a small team, co-leading architecture and design for our customer-facing portal.Attended Visual Studio Live! and trained the department on what I learned.I lead the department in SOLID design principles providing elegant, maintainable, testable code.I lead the department in a Rest/ Web API strategy utilizing EF6, Web API 2, OData and Swagger.Coach developers in design patterns such as MVC, Abstract Factories, Repository, Decorator, Strategy, Dependency Injection, Open/Close principal and Agile practicesContinually develop in our customer facing portal with ASP.NET MVC 4,Kendo UI, Bootstrap and recently AngularJS. I have designed an ordering wizard to allow our customers to add new phone lines to their existing locations.Introduced NUnit, Simple Injector, NSubstitute, Fakes, NBuilder to provide solutions for Unit Testing and providing unit testable code. Develop WCF services with transaction scopes and Entity Framework, used for previewing and publishing database changes.Design SQL database triggers, sprocs, functions and views to constrain and accommodate business rules in order to maintain data integrity. Consistently lead planning meetings and code reviews in TFS.Actively participate in weekly architecture meetings where I discuss and recommend design patterns and coding practices with the lead architect on our team.Developed SSIS packages to automate and solve common business problems.

Developed Energy Tracker 2 in an n-tier architecture, which is a PGE customer-facing web control embedded on the Account Summary Page. I developed this clean HTML, CSS and Javascript based custom web control that consumed JSON through a .Net/C# Web Service, which I designed without consuming server side controls. The webservice also communicates with stored procedures that I developed on Oracle and MSSQL databases. I created automated NUnit tests and used the Ninject IOC container to handle the dependency injection. I modified and implemented build scripts in order to utilize Cruise Control continuous integration server.Support the bill print and CIS products for critical business activities. This includes automating business processes by developing C# based applications.Design and support Crystal Reports and Oracle stored procedures.Worked with the Entity Framework ORM on a few occasions.Practice code reviews, peer programming, lead .Net community of practice discussions, lead Agile/Scrum practices, constantly interacting with business analysts and product owner to digest customer’s need.

Created a custom WCF(C#) service proxy that uniforms two different appointment management software packages, one being a third-party package with a SOAP-based API and the other an in-house solution, by calling directly to the MS SQL with Linq Entities.Maintained several projects in SVN coordinating with other developers on branch merges and build tags.Assisted the lead developer by creating custom validation classes for an ASP.NET (C#, MVC 3 Razor) project.Jumped into to several pre-existing Web Form, MVC, WinForm, and WPF based C# projects for bug fixes, design changes and creating new features and solutions. Developed and consulted on several Microsoft SQL Server database creation scripts, optimized stored procedures and views, along with overall database structure. Introduced Over and Partition By, instead of user defined functions. This increased speeds of queries from minutes to seconds.Developed and maintained several SSRS reports, which included refactoring several existing reports and stored procedures to turn reports that used to compile in several minutes down to several seconds.

Development:Created a quote creator web application that allows customers to easily create a quote by uploading an Excel document with part numbers and quantities or manually adding parts and retrieves unique pricing from that store for a customer. Used ASP.NET (VB.NET, WebForms), MySql, ADO.NET. New version uses ASP.NET (MVC 3 Razor, C#), SQL Express, EXT JS and ASPOSE.NETIndependently developed, with the exception of design, an online ordering system that connects to a legacy unix system used by over 300 store locations and processes over 1000 transactions daily. Used ASP.NET (VB.NET, Web Forms), MySql Server, Telerik Controls.Developed and documented a Web Services-based API that connects into the ecommerce package to allow third parties to interact with pricing, availability, shopping carts, order history and so on. Used .NET Web Services (VB.NET).Migrated data from a legacy unix system into a MySQL database to accommodate the Pentaho business intelligence package. This included experimenting with different speed optimizations such as memory tables.Created the first GUI interface that interacted with data in this particular legacy ERP package for the purpose of managing customer details, used by hundreds of users. Used WinForms and Telerik Controls connecting to VB6 Com Objects exposed by the telnet/ssh client.Created a general ledger drilldown program to allow our customers to balance their accounts in a more intuitive interface. Used WinForms (VB.NET), Telerik Controls and interfacing with a third party connectivity tool to the backend system.Developed a few ASP.NET Web Forms (VB.NET) that integrated inside Sharepoint Server and used by hundreds of end-users authenticated through the corporate web portal.Developed a complete support ticket system in a strict 30-day time period, in the evenings, that is used by 15 support admins and over 1000 clients. Used ASP.NET (Web Forms, VB.NET) and MySql Server.See Resume for more...
