SUMMARY:

• With more than 6 years (~ 6.3 years) of subject matter experience in .NET and Microsoft Technologies developing web applications, web services and windows applications along with leadership experience in designing, fabricating and analyzing functional design documents and creating design documents for technology focused customer experience, within the specified timelines and budget.
• On a high - level, my technical skills include developing web application and web services using C#, ASP.NET, MVC, Entity Framework, WCF, JQuery, Javascript, HTML5, SQL Server, SSIS, VB.Net. Windows applications development using VB.Net and WPF.
• I have primarily worked in Microsoft Technologies for more than 6 years, with vivid experience on .Net f/w ranging from 2.0 till 4.5.1 (the latest project migration took place on this framework). This includes my experience in designing, fabricating, developing, unit testing, system testing and UAT fixes of Web, Windows and Service based applications.
• This includes using coding language C# extensively and VB to an extent.
• I have also worked on SQL Server versions 2005 untill 2014 which includes designing database schemas using Visio and SQL Diagrammatic Tool, have created standalone schemas for the tables, written stored procedures, scripts to insert/delete/update and select queries using different join statements for business reports, scripting out SQL Server agent jobs, stored procedure tuning etc.
• In one of my previous project experience while designing UI of a CRM Apparel application for the Retailer (it is really a vast source code with 20 projects inside one solution catering to extensive length of business needs), I worked on creating CSS classes for easier code maintainability, reduce redundancy and improve code quality. The same application used MVC3, Javascript, Jquery 1.5.1, used JSON during Ajax data postback to the UI control.
• The front end was written in HTML5 using Razor Syntax in cshtml which acted as the View for the MVC application. This UI used to interact with Java webservices using the WSDL generated from service layer and used to follow SOA pattern with its DB as back end of the service layer, decoupling each layer as it goes.
• In my recent projects I have worked and still continuing work on Entity Framework Database First approach creating entity objects from the classes created using the entity template (EF 6). This we are using as designing the Model classes and using those classes, writing the Mapping layer which contains the business logic for the incoming Web XML requests coming through the Service interface which in turn is a WCF service installed in IIS of the application server. This follows ther HTTPS transport mechanism where the app server certificate validates the XML requests coming through different channels i.e Store POS, Ecommerce Web channel, COM, Mobile POS etc.
• I also have experience in designing, coding and reviewing UIs and APIs using ASP.Net, ADO.Net fudamentals for the retailer which is an application used for Gift Card Marketing systems.
• I have hands on experience in diagnosing and troubleshooting test and production environments using event viewer logs, application level logs and APM monitoring tools as part of investigating and resolving priorty production bugs or issues.
