EXPERIENCE:

Confidential, Hurst, TX

ITAR Lead

Responsibilities:

• Responsibilities include interfacing with clients, customers, and SMEs, gathering requirements, implementing technical solutions using the Confidential technology stack (Microsoft Stack, Oracle, SAP, and other technologies), new development, enhancements, support of over 20+ sensitive Confidential ITAR web based applications, and delegating responsibilities to other Confidential internal and offshore developers.
• The backend is SAP/CRM and is tied to the MVC application through a set of WCF services utilizing the SAP .NET Connector. The SAP .NET Connector calls RFCs in SAP/CRM to return product information. Logging and tracing is handled via NLog and stored in a SQL Server 2014 database. Responsibilities include assuming the lead role on this application, integrating shipping carrier functionality, revamping the .xlsx order process functionality, working with the SAP/CRM team to modify the service layer when needed, and delegating tasks to mid-level .NET developers as needed.
• Confidential Admin senior/lead developer. Confidential Admin is the administrative piece of the Confidential application where user and contact information is stored and updated. It is a separate MVC web based application which adheres to a different release schedule than the main Confidential application. New users are granted access through Confidential Admin and assigned roles. The application stores and manipulates data in an Oracle 11 database. Confidential has separate external activesync jobs that run as services every five minutes. These jobs check the Oracle 11 tables for updates and process the user information as needed. One job handles the propagation through Active Directory and another scheduled job handles the propagation through SAP/CRM. Logging and tracing is handled via NLog and stored in a SQL Server 2014 database. Responsibilities include assuming the lead role on this application, enhancing the role based functionality, updating the application as needed, delegating tasks to mid-level .NET developers as needed. Technologies used: ASP.Net MVC 5, DevExpress Controls, JQuery, NLog, Oracle 11, SQL Server 2014, TFS 2016(Agile/Scrum approach using 2 week sprints), Visual Studio 2017, WCF.
• Confidential Configurator Parser Application - Configurator senior/lead developer. The Configurator allows Confidential sales and marketing staff to go on the road remotely and configure helicopter kits and options on an iPad for prospective customers (Nepal, China, India, etc). The front end of the application is designed and configured as a Phone Gap mobile application. The backend is a collection of generated JSON files which are consumed by the Phone Gap application. My primary role is to enhance and handle the backend part of this application. A 800,000 line XML extract is sent to me from a 3rd party Data Warehouse (Firepond) who handles Confidential aircraft data.
• This large XML extract is then parsed using an ETL tool (Pentaho Data Integration) and loaded into a set of tables in a SQL Server 2014 database. A separate, custom thin client application is then used to call a set of WCF services to massage, cleanup, and format the SQL data into mobile friendly JSON that can be used within the main Phone Gap application. This thin client app massages then outputs the data into an organized set of files within a given folder structure. The folder structure is then zipped up and moved over to the Phone Gap project so it can be deployed to the handful of mobile devices before they move out into the field.

Technologies used: Pentaho Data Integration, SQL Server 2014, TFS 2016, Visual Studio 2017, WCF.

Confidential, Plano, TX

Responsibilities:

• Tasked by management to come up with a solution to redesign the primary BPO SSRS report in the VRMS system. Comparable Listing and Sales addresses needed to be plotted on a map embedded within the report without using a rich Javascript framework solution. Utilized the Google Maps API to plot and color coordinate push pins via Geo coding. Property information was then placed in a table below the embedded Google map since we couldn’t use info windows (provided by Google Maps using javascript). Redesigned other aspects of the report as well. Solution was sent to management and immediately approved for production.
• Built a Support Request Module into the VRMS application. This module allowed end users to quickly fill out a form to generate and submit a support request ticket. I had to build a matrix behind the scenes in a SQL Server database (cross reference tables) to allow the users to quickly select the appropriate categories and continue filtering down the priority changes as they made their selections at a higher level (cascading DropDownList controls).
• Worked to build a support request tracking mechanism for the development staff within the new Support Request Module. This feature trapped unexpected system exceptions and allowed the end user to fill out web form information so these critical exceptions could be tracked and resolved. This modal screen captured the end user’s input as well as the stack trace information from the exception and environment settings of the user reporting the bug.
• Worked to enhance the Asset Management System. This system is responsible for handling different types of property information to assist brokers and vendors.
• Responsible for building the Property Preservation module which tracked all forms of maintenance on foreclosed properties.

Technologies used: .Net 4.5, ASP.NET, C#, DHTML, Entity Framework, IIS 8, JQuery, SQL Server 2012(Admin work, Stored Procs, etc.), Telerik Controls, TFS 2012(Agile/Scrum approach using 1-2 week sprints), Visual Studio 2012.

Confidential, Plano, TX

Responsibilities:

• Worked to enhance the Confidential Approval Workflow system which handles pursuits and potential contract opportunities.
• Added functionality to the ASP.NET application allowing key decision makers to update a given workflow, track version history and approve the different versions of a workflow as opposed to only updating a “concrete” workflow that cannot change. Integrated Entity Framework into the application to standardize data layer. Created and updated existing data functionality using LINQ. Technologies used: .Net 4.0, ASP.NET, C#, DHTML, Entity Framework, IIS 8, SQL Server 2012(Admin work, Stored Procs, etc.), TFS 2012(Agile/Scrum approach using 2 week sprints), Visual Studio 2012.
• Redesigned the Confidential NCS contract and pursuit system using Microsoft Visual Studio Lightswitch. The legacy system was built with ASP.NET and sat on top of a SQL 2005 database. Responsibilities included building new Lightswitch screens, all data conversion from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2012, SSRS Reports, and writing LINQ queries to pull data for Lightswitch screens. Technologies used: Lightswitch, Sharepoint 2012, SQL Server 2012(Admin work, Stored Procs, Reporting Services), TFS 2012(Agile/Scrum approach using 2 week sprints), Visual Studio 2012.
• Redesigned a classic ASP Employee Recognition system using Microsoft Visual Studio Lightswitch. Worked with a team of 2 other developers to redesign 75+ screens in less than 6 weeks. Used Lightswitch to generate screens and functionality. Used LINQ queries to pull data for new screens. Once complete the app was published into Sharepoint 2012 as a web part, leveraging Sharepoint’s “look and feel” capabilities.
• Designed and implemented the NCS Data Integration Hub (DIH) housing all NCS programs. The DIH was created as a central repository for all program related data (program names, contacts, dates, skills, etc). A SQL 2008 R2 database was created and a WCF layer was designed and implemented to allow external applications access to this program data.
• Worked to build new enhancements and led conversion efforts for one of the most highly visible applications in the Confidential IS portfolio. This application is designed to allow managers and supervisors to create their own organization structures to track employee bandwidth and labor actuals over a five year period. The system tracks each employee within an organization and the project(s) and associated labor actuals which they have been assigned. Other responsibilities included mentoring junior developers and intermediate .Net developers to be able to support the application, leading weekly status calls to give regional SMEs updates on the system. This system currently tracks over 65,000 employees. Team size: 5.

Application is designed to pool fighter aircraft radar system resources (F-22, F-18, F-15 managers), missile system resources (PATRIOT system consultants), and other tactical military and commercial system resources. The system allows these technical resources to build their " Confidential resumes" for future consideration when new combat/commercial systems are funded and ready to be staffed. Executives are able to use the system to run searches and generate reports (via SQL Server Reporting Services) to pinpoint a specific skill set which enables them to staff a stronger technical team. Application has a user base of over 13,000 and continues to grow weekly.
• Began migration efforts to move existing .Net 1.1 and 2.0 applications to .Net 3.5/Visual Studio 2008 utilizing WPF, XAML, etc. while performing research on Microsoft Silverlight to see if it would integrate into the Confidential Development Framework. Worked on several applications until it was discovered that it would not be available on Confidential production servers for a period of time.
• Assigned as technical lead and NCS IS POC to design and implement a ASP.NET v2.0 data integrity application to help Confidential Space and Airborne Systems (SAS) PRISM executives analyze inventory data. Client was in the process of moving to a new SAP system and wanted to make sure the data matched the existing SAP system. Met with client to gather requirements and data integrity rules, then began developing the system.
• Worked as part of a team to Upgrade and enhance the Confidential Corporate Visitor System from ASP.NET v1.1 to v2.0. This system is used worldwide across all Confidential Business Units to track Department of Defense, NATO, military and foreign national visitors who enter Confidential facilities. It is used to gather and process information then determine the appropriate security clearance of the given individual.
