Java Developer

Accomplishments

• Integrated Java applications and IronPython widgets into shop WIP Analytics for Cognos replacement.
• Solely responsible for the customer-facing Deterioration application that relied on nine SQL query visualizations, built on an API of twelve Teradata database views.
• Designed and implemented a Fuel Burn web application that avoids infrastructure road blocks by storing customer context in the application, and using the context to control prompts instantaneously.
• Installed and demonstrated the use of statistical services and the R programming language in a new Durability Weibull analysis.
• Presented proofs-of-concept to GE Global Research for migrating applications to mobile devices.
• Tuned the Teradata database views to reduce execution cost by eight orders of magnitude.
• Utilized new Spotfire JavaScript API services without the availability of TIBCO documentation.
• Resolved all actionable JIRA tickets, creating or updating dozens of Java classes as needed, and documenting processes with Javadoc. Employed Design Patterns, such as Strategy and Factory.
• Migrated the web project from Subversion to two CVS projects, one for static content and faster builds.
• Added CAPTCHA protection to web pages, XML parsing with XStream, and collapsible lists using CSS.
• Created five database tables, nine views, four functions, two stored procedures, and a job management package to facilitate Cintas maintenance and report generation.
• Successfully tackled and deployed fixes for a dozen change requests and CA Service Desk tickets.
• Designed a dynamically updatable JAX-WS web service for Procter Gamble that decouples database access, product build strategy, and XML field selection, using a pull data model and reflection to read and create object trees from JAXB-generated classes.

• Delivered an AIX KSH and two C project applications on time for the first release window, allowing the company to save on development expenses.
• Automated two-way communications between the Seibel Customer1 and the UDSR/STAR systems.

Confidential

Accomplishments

• Designed a web-based Data Warehouse for quality control tracking of document indexing, and implemented a test system with a team of five other developers. Utilized Oracle JDBC access Java and ETL strategies.
• Maintained or created Java/J2EE object classes for on-line system support using Websphere and ANT.
• Authored software standards for departmental use of assembler and ISO-compliant C to facilitate software management, maintenance and improved performance.

• Provided tools for easier access to operating system capabilities, notably in languages such as PL/I that lacked the capability.
• Composed language- and environment-independent DBDACC and DBNUMC applications for company-wide use in metadata access four-fold speed-up and format conversions. These tools imposed standard behavior and interfaces for thousands of applications and evolving environments.
• Accelerated the on-line database release process four-fold by exploiting the IBM Coupling Facility, and eliminating 100 million daily I/O operations.
