Supported a broad variety of apps, incl. DCS customer request service (which consumed/transformed customer data, distributing it to various internal systems), SCALE/WMS (warehousing system), and Optimove/Intergis (routing and scheduling apps). Responded to issues both internal and external issues, maintaining a 24-hour on-call rotation to respond quickly to critical issues. Supported issues with system interconnectivity via IBM MQ queues and DB2/MSSQL tables.Payroll/Invoicing Reporting: Supported various invoicing and payroll reports (SQL/SSRS/Excel), which ran reports supporting driver payroll and customer invoicing. Managed report automation triggers, structure, and backend systems, including both legacy reports and generation of new reports.Misc. Development: App development tasks as required by various stakeholders. This included new features, system integration, and bugfixing. Also contributed to project scoping, design, and deployment (including requirements gathering, UX design, implementation/deployment, and documentation).Performance/Tuning: Contributed to various performance and tuning efforts, including query analysis/optimization, peer code reviews, and real-time troubleshooting with DynaTrace.ElasticSearch “Big Data” Project: When tasked with expanding our current system’s order searching capabilities, concluded that our current approach (dynamic SQL) was untenable as we required more complex queryies. I was responsible for researching and implementing a broader, “big data” approach to our searching technology. I researched several options (including ElasticSearch, SOLR, and Lucene), and identified ElasticSearch as the most appropriate solution. I implemented a solution which involved a new virtual server, hosting an indexing service and an ElasticSearch instance mapped to our customer request data. This system consumed our incoming customer data, indexing it for flexible searching by external apps via a REST interface.

Upon leaving the University of Arkansas, was promptly hired back by the Career Development Center on a contract basis to implement a student placement survey which gathered statistics regarding graduated students’ post-graduation status. This required building a mass-email system to invite students to participate, a web interface for students to respond, and an online data-reporting tool which provided faculty/staff the ability to view statistics and modify responses. Met with stakeholders to gather requirements and resources. Configured a dedicated Linux/Apache/mySQL/PHP (LAMP) web server in Ubuntu Linux. Built application using PHP in the CodeIgniter application framework with mySQL for data storage and extensive use of Javascript (mostly jQuery) and AJAX in the front-end (including client-side password-encryption, since the stakeholders did not want to purchase a SSL certificate for the server). The system provided single-sign-on for both students and faculty/staff by integrating with the school’s existing LDAP servers. Upon system go-live, provided system documentation and ongoing support for the system through Q3 2012;
