Motivated, experienced developer with a proven track record of success. Excellent problem solving skills paired with an ability to bring abstract solutions into a real world environment.
Built and helped engineer a microservices stack from the ground up. Worked heavily with many different AWS services including but not limited to: cloudformation, aws-cdk, lambda, dynamodb, sqs, sns, s3, rds, and codebuild. I decomposed the legacy data model based on postgres to many different services that leveraged dynamodb and communicated over queues.
Build and maintain batch processing jobs along with a front end customer relations management platform in Microsoft Dynamics. I work with many customer CLI apps to process data.
As a member of a large team of software developers I gained invaluable experience working as a member of a large enterprise software company. I also gain a lot of technical experience with the .NET environment as well as messaging architectures in enterprise level software. I served as a technical resource on my team and directed other members of my team on architectural design decisions. I also have insight into the challenges of working with many developers, from both process and software standpoints.
Gained real world software engineering experience. I helped build and maintain applications written with a variety of different web languages and paradigms. I mainly worked with the Symfony 2 enterprise framework, but also work with AngularJS, as well as a variety of different web libraries. I gained experience in different package and dependency management systems as well as enterprise unit testing. I was also lead research and development engineer on a cutting edge application built around the SIP over WebSocket and WebRTC protocols.
Started a small startup based in Buffalo. Along with one other developer, I designed and built a web application called Nightli designed to help people find what is going on around them tonight. This included everything from data modeling to server administration. I gained experience with many of the Java EE frameworks like EJB, JPA, JSF and others. I am very familiar with multi-layer applications using these frameworks. I am also very experienced with MySQL including MySQL Cluster. I also help develop native applications in both the Android and iOS operating systems.
As a member of the Web Services team I have learned a wealth of knowledge about software engineering as well as how to work well in a team environment. Being a part of an organization that manages over 70 websites as well as many web applications, and content management systems has made me a professional developer.
