PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Blue Cross Blue Shield, Chattanooga TN

Sr. Java J2EE Developer

Power MHS: is a claims processing automation application built to address new Blue Cross Blue Shield Association compliance mandates, boost productivity, increase accuracy across their claims operations and provide Flexibility. This application aims at reducing claims inventories and saving operational expense.

Responsibilities:

• Developed web-tier using Spring MVC framework.
• Created Presentation Tier using JSP pages, jQuery and JavaScript that provide a rich browser based user interface. Also implemented AJAX with JSON for dynamic data retrieval in some screens.
• Designed and developed Spring AOP components for Service implementation.
• Developed business-logic controller framework development utilizing spring framework and dependency injection, catering to both standard server-side and AJAX client requests.
• Worked extensively in the development of the DAO layer of the application using Hibernate with DB2 as database.
• Used Hibernate Query Language (HQL) for retrieving, inserting, updating and deleting data in DB2 database.
• Used DbVisualizer to write SQL Queries, joins for viewing the data from the database tables.
• Designed and developed several logical layers and modules including UI Delegate, DAO and a Services Layer.
• Developed the applications using Eclipse or Rational Application Developer (RAD) 7.5.4 and configured Web-Sphere 7.0 server using car file.
• Implemented the Drools 5.0.1 (Business Rule Engine) for processing the workflows by decoupling it from the Java Code. Drools was invoked from the application using StatefulKnowledgeSession.
• Designed and implemented the workflow steps from requirements documents as Ruleflows (.rf files) using jBPM, which could be viewed as a flow chart for better understanding of the underlying logic.
• Integrated Business rules (.drl files) into the rule flows by assigning rules to a Ruleflow Group using Drools Expert. It is achieved by authoring side by side ruleflows with rules.
• Wrote JUnit tests to support testing of rule base.
