• Wrote a library/development kit that improved the way that the company created ETL programs. Previously, the company’s dozens of ETL programs had separate codebases. These contained mostly identical code that was either recreated for each ETL, or copied from program to program. The new library used a single, multi-threaded, library-based codebase to decrease coding by at least 90% and greatly reduce errors.

• Co-created an automated build system for the company’s 50+ programs. The system was linked to GitHub so that any code check-ins would start an automatic build.

• Technologies: C#, .NET, MySQL, MongoDB, Entity Framework, TeamCity, AWS.

• Wrote most of the software for all parts of the company’s flagship product: functional prototypes, user interface, desktop application, service application, installer, ASP.NET MVC web services, database design, database ETL, and reporting.

• Created a modular, brandable software “engine” using an extensible add-in interface to provide diverse functionality that met the requirements of multiple PC manufacturers, while greatly reducing the time needed to bring new products to market.

• Managed all software development through multiple releases of the company’s products.

• Worked collaboratively with PC manufacturers’ engineering, marketing, and design teams to develop products to their specifications.

• Created software tools and libraries to increase the efficiency of other engineers and employees.

• Met with potential customers for product demos, and with current customers for product feedback and collaboration.

• Technologies: C#, .NET, WPF, ASP.NET MVC, SQL Server, Entity Framework, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Silverlight, C++, SSRS, Dotfuscator, Globalizer.
