I started as a Senior COBOL and DB2 developer in support of Y2K remediation, but subsequently became a Software Release Engineer when the company began developing desktop and web based server applications. I created the initial architecture and process methodologies/automation for source version control management and build and release automation. I create a custom release management tracking web application based on Microsoft .NET and SQL Server platforms to provide administration and reporting of source and release management activities. I became Team Lead, overseeing a team of 3 on-shore Release Engineers increasing to include several off-shore counterparts to provide 24 hour support for the development group. I led the Change Management Board in weekly reviews of requested production changes. I consulted on many strategic development projects to provide source and release management architectures for the resulting applications.

I was predominantly a COBOL, DB2, and CICS developer supporting both Individual Life and later Annuity / Retirement batch applications. In addition to daily changes and administration of applications, I provided on-call support as well. I was selected to participate on several project development teams to create a new Application intake system based on CASE technology, and served as a local database administrator and developer in developing a client account management system, designing ERD diagrams and implementing the same to create this new system.
