Quicktrip is a high transaction, high availability multi tier Internet booking engine which EB2 has developed over the last 7 years. During my time at EB2 the entire platform, which was first implemented in Bullant, was rewritten entirely in Java. In the past 4 years I have fulfilled a very hand on Senior Java Developer role within the EB2’s Platform team. My key responsibilities were:• Responsible for proposing/implementing ideas that will improve performance, maintainability, operability, and reliability.• Ensure new development was evaluated within the context of the organization agreed architecture.• Provide direction in the adoption of appropriate development best practices.• Mentor junior team members through pair programming and code reviews.• Participates in architectural review teams and plan large refactoring.• Consulting with analysts to formulate, analyze and understand functional and technical specifications.• Implementing new Features / EnhancementsFrom a technical point of view Quicktrip is 100% Java. The main technologies in use include: Spring IOC container, Hibernate, Tomcat, Mysql, Ehcache, quartz and CXF (web services). We use Maven extensively to manage (compile/build/package) the many projects which make up Quicktrip. I used all the above libraries on a day to day basis.I am very proud to have been part of this highly driven and successful organization. QuickTrip quickly gain recognition within the travel industry and EB2 was acquired by Sabre Airline Solution in 2009.

Design, implementation and technical support of two pharmaceutical deviation handling products. DERICC (Deviation System) and ERICC (Electronic Regulated Industry Change Control). Main purpose on those system was to handle all types of change requests and record deviations within pharmaceutical manufacturing process. I held a technical lead position during the implementation of DERICC & ERICC. Both of these projects were large Java based web based applications. Both projects were highly successful projects and deployed to Janssen's and Wyeth's manufacturing plants. Both products used Java (Servlet API, JavaMail API, JSP, JDBC), Oracle 8.1.x PL/SQL stored procedures, extensive use of JavaScript, fully localized front end, FDA Compliant, eSignature, full audit of electronic record (21 CRF Part 11), cutting edge HTML front end, PowerBuilder COM reporting engine.
