• Self Improvement through continuous learning
• MBA with specialization in Luxury marketing and Operations management.
• CSM and CSP (Certified Scrum Master and Certified Scrum Professional) certifications.
• Technical Skill upgrade through webinars, conferences and user group participation
• Study of Scriptures such as Bhagvad Gita for personal improvement.
• Play Multiplexed roles of Agile developer, analyst, DevOps Engineer, manager resulting into following accolades:
• “Thank you for taking time and mentoring us on Jenkins your guidance at every step and willing to help in any way you can has allowed us to proceed relatively faster. You blur team lines and went out of your way to guide the development team in addition to your own project work. Thank you so much The DevOps Team.”
• “ I want to thank you for your work on the application build, and especially for your flexibility and helpfulness with the process. You had been waiting for me to find the time (and I can never find the time) to review your changes, and when I finally did find the time, we were right at a critical deadline. You dropped everything to work on my issue and not only that, you took the time to train team mates and myself on several things so we could better understand the process. Your work after hours on this yesterday enabled the Offshore team to continue work overnight, and will enable us to begin regression days earlier than I expected. Additionally, your positive attitude combined with your laid-back, no-problem approach builds an excellent rapport with our team and builds real confidence and trust in your work product: the build.”
• Replaced externally scheduled jobs with inbuilt application scheduler using Quatrz API. This resulted into better control of scheduling within application.
• Migrated web application from WebLogic to JBoss by replacing WebLogic API with equivalent Apache APIs such as Beehive - NetUI. This migration resulted into reduction into saving of high annual maintenance cost.
• Designed and deployed fix to security vulnerability identified by penetration test. Fixed SQL Injection and XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) vulnerabilities using AOP and Blacklist & Whitelist rule sets.
• Migrated Actuate Reports to Jasper Reports resulting in saving of high annual maintenance cost.
• Designed and developed of Enterprise Reporting Framework using PowerBuilder and PFC. The framework enables an application for enterprise level reporting with real time graphs and drill downs. The Framework improves productivity by providing base classes and framework.
• Designed testing framework for PowerBuilder applications using PBUnit.
• Designed and implemented Continuous Integration solution for PowerBuilder based application using PBORCA and Jenkins. This improved reliability of deployed artifacts.
• Successfully delivered software product enhancement using offshore development model resulting into cost savings.
