Application Architect Resume
SUMMARY:
- I have over 25 years of experience in the software engineering industry with extensive experience both architecting and developing solutions, most of which has been based on Confidential technologies. I have extensive experience with both large and smaller systems.
- Through the years I have used most development frameworks such as Agile (Scrum), Waterfall and a combination of both tailored to company and team.
- I have also used Confidential Security Development Lifecycle or a subset of it.
- As part of providing architect consulting help to companies I have done Solution and Enterprise Architect roles along with the Application Architect role for the specific projects I was contracted on.
- At Confidential, my current client, I functioned as an Architect and Technical Expert giving directions for other teams on new technology such as Windows 10, UWP, .NET etc. I also have been architecting and implement numerous systems used by the Retail division.
- Before Confidential I worked for Confidential as a consultant in an Architect/Technical Expert role. I got the different development teams on the solution following best practices for development along with redesigning aspects of the solution to make it scalable and maintainable.
- Before Confidential I worked for Magenic as a Solution/Application Architect or Technical Expert on projects for 12 years. In my early career I worked for software companies that produced ERP and Sales Automation solutions.
- The workshop, which we are on our 3rd year now, teaches the collaboration and key deliverables needed for all IT architect disciplines i.e. business, solution, application architect, etc.
