EXPERIENCE:

Confidential

Senior JAVA consultant

Responsibilities:

• Primary developer/architect for the Confidential Service
• Video asset validation RESTful service intended to avoid a costly failure at the end of lengthy conversion process by validating components against an Air Master reference.
• Made use of several other RESTful services to retrieve asset components.
• Focused on making parallel restful calls via java futures in order to maximize thru-put.
• Validation itself was made via the Selige asset validation Service (see below).
• Acted as technical liaison with several other Confidential development groups to coordinate results for an entity wide project.
• Responsible for the Program Technical Services Operations suite of software tools.
• Lead and participated in technical requirements gathering sessions for new features with the user community.
• Primary developer for an angular/Java restful service web application used to manipulate the mass storage and retrieval for large video/audio assets.
• Built and interacted with many other Restful endpoints and MQ services for synchronous asynchronous operations.
• Angular front end updated for new security access to show/hide menu items and action buttons based on back-end LDAP security groups to only allow specific user groups to view/manipulate information and corresponding updates.
• Lead Java engineer for the Path to Air control system.
• Incorporated an asset cross reference service to lookup and return all known permutations of an asset’s ID thru lookup in multiple Oracle Databases. Service was implemented Using both RESTful and JMS (MQ) endpoints.
• Integrated several individual RESTful endpoints together (Technical-Asset-Metadata, Program-Asset-Metadata, URN-Resource Lookup) along with upgrading them to use OAuth2.0 tokenization security to build a new composite RESTful service to replace a series of complex Oracle queries for faster and more reliable thru-put.
• Architected and implemented the Selige Audio/Video validation service/Global Master validation.
• Rule based validation service that instead of cryptic and difficult to maintain if/then/else logic is built from a series of rule-based interfaces for each possible validation rule, flexible enough to be assembled into any unique rule combination for validation at runtime.
• Rules espoused one validation each to facilitate easy unit testing and were chained together into unique but complex combinations at runtime depending on the needs of the individual Global Master being validated. So flexible that, at runtime, no two rule combinations may ever be exactly repeated.

Technical lead

Responsibilities:

• In Stage one, took charge of an offshore team in charge of a multi-tier RESTful architecture encompassing an angular JS front end, a Spring boot-based controller, service and JPA database layers, all interconnected thru a RESTful API in a java 1.8 runtime environment.
• RESTful API implemented thru Jersey with google JsonFactory assistance where appropriate.
• Directed the refactoring of the API layers to consolidate separate calls into simpler and more generals’ ones, greatly simplifying the Service and JPA layers.
• Each EJB replaced with a RESTful service call to well defined controller, service and DB layers.
• Project architected with a Spring boot architecture and a JPA database framework in a Java 1.8 environment.
• RESTful json transformations to local java beans/models handled with Jackson libraries.
• Replaced in-house customer email components with a system based external API call to IBM Silverpop digital marketing.
• Emails built via an and subsequently sent to thru a JMS Message Queue for HTTP Post to Silverpop yielding decoupling as well as elasticity, failure re-try and greater reliability.

Senior J2EE Developer

Responsibilities:

• Objective to create a series of HTTP based Micro services to deliver web content in a parallel fashion replacing a traditional linear servlet design for greater performance, horizontal scalability and extremely high availability thru redundancy.
• All Micro services written in a RESTful topology using Scala 2.10 in conjunction with Casbah for Mongo database connectivity.
• RESTful service layer deployed in Typesafe Play containers for better memory management.
• Utilized AKKA Actors for multi-threading in addition to decoupling components layers.
• Independent Message Queues (JMS) carrying JSON messages used for each service to better scale over multiple JVM’s for increased redundancy and thru put.
• Service layers routed JSON messages back thru JMS broadcast Topics to complete the Enterprise Service Bus.
• Combination of AKKA and MQ architecture allowed massive parallelism to handle varying loads.
• Lead developer for the creation of a local Java/JMS MQ library to ease the development and use of JMS based MQ services, deployed on a JBoss EAP 6 /Hornet Q platform.

• Credit Card Tokenization Project Architect and Lead developer
• Design goal to replace all credit card numbers with secure tokens, in an asynchronous manner.
• Created Micro services around a soap client in a play framework within a Docker Container for portability and ease of use by all store banners.
• Tokenization Daemon engineered to asynchronously obtain tokens from RESTful service by draining requests from a JMS message queue and updating credit card objects using Jboss Enterprise 6 app server and Oracle PL/SQL procedures.
• JMS MQ topology architected around the design goal of multiple producers and multiple consumers resulting in maximal service uptime and yielding increased scalability, and reliability.
• Lead developer contributing to the Swagger open source project to port the Swagger -2 annotation library to a play-2/Scala platform (Formerly only available in java 6 for Jboss).
• Utilized the resulting library to annotate all RESTful services for the above PDS RESTful Services.
• Website Java normalization Technical lead.
• Re-wrote the entire customer checkout subsystem upgrading it to modern Model-View-Controller conventions in addition to incorporating Java 1.6 features and coding standards and best practices.
