The business code transfers data to web and VRU systems that smoothly and successfully work with over 100 million hits and calls per year. Led in the design and development of a large data simulation system that allowed unit, integration and capacity testing without availability of the data mainframes. This allowed a delivery of the system in a timely manner with a minimum of errors. Was a primary contracting contact for data examination, evaluation and translation of highly complex data, which ultimately led to the development of Java classes converting from a non-typed data format to strongly-typed, object-oriented format to simplify usage and minimize changes to the business level when data formats changed .
