PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Software Developer and Support

Confidential

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain Epicor customizations, dashboards, business activity queries (BAQ), and business process management scripts (BPM)
• Develop custom applications in C# utilizing Epicor API
• Use Microsoft SQL Server with C# to develop custom applications
• Develop web services in .NET
• Provide user support
• Wrote a batch emailing application which notifies users once a week if they have open cases which have not been modified in the past month
• Created SSRS reports for legal and licensing teams to view weekly, monthly, and yearly reports of member activity
• Maintained and supported tariff reporting tools in Epicor by fixing bugs reported by users in C#, Epicor customization code, BAQs and BPMs.
• Held lunch and learns to help coworkers understand work items and how they relate to check - ins, how to maintain versioning using TFS functionality, as well as the importance of code reviews as a tool for better code practices as well as knowledge sharing across the team, a fundamental tool in agile methodology.
• Had plans to introduce automated builds for ease of access by the QA team.
• Initiated conversation and received approval from management to convert old client-side Epicor plugins from Windows applications to web-based (ASP.NET) apps to reduce down-time when VDI (VMware) promotions happened.
• The process of updating client-side DLLs and scripts, and then rolling out multiple master images to different teams of the company was a very cumbersome ordeal, which could only be done once a month.
• Users would have to wait for elementary fixes, which could be done within a few minutes in the dev environment, and could not be promoted as quickly. Converting to a web interface saved the company time, as well as resources, by housing all client-side software on IIS servers and dropping new DLLs and scripts for users to use the next morning.

• Maintain existing software by fixing bugs and adding new features to comply with new regulations for exporting goods out of Canada.
• Create and/or fix automated forms required by customs officers using Crystal Reports in Visual Studio. MS SQL Server was used as the DBMS for this entire project.
• I was tasked to begin work on creating the login and skeleton pages for the rest of the softare. A team of four, myself included, was tasked to work on getting the project up and running to be used by clients.
• The software was built from scratch using Outsystems for front-end UI and C# with ASP.NET for back-end report generating and communications with customs software.
• With a somewhat negative experience using Crystal Reports in Export Manager, I wrote a tool which generates reports using an HTML template created by the developer and displays the report in PDF format. This allowed for much more flexibility than CR allowed in their reports. MS SQL Server was used as the DBMS for this entire project.
