Summary

Objective Leverage my architecture business process analytic and user experience skills to envision and implement high end-user value applications.

An early evangelist for iterative development at Rational Software I am an adept practitioner of Agile methods and test-driven development. I ve worked in product-focused engagements and in enterprise systems development in the design build and maintenance phases of project lifecycles.

My most recent assignments were a contract assignment with SilverRail Technologies a start-up in the web-enabled travel/logistics space. I enabled a team building a customer-facing mobile-responsive application that provides the user with real-time rail itineraries and bookings.

I also worked on a short-term contract with AT T working on the re-architecture of their core information systems hub implementing real-time message-based consumption of transaction and sales data across an expanse of disparate internal databases using database replication technology GoldenGate and message-driven architecture JMS .

My previous assignment was in the financial industry Vantiv/Litle Co. a credit card transaction acquiring organization. As a member of the Platform Architecture team I evaluate systemic issues around security availability and performance while also developing long-term platform guidance policy and direction in the areas of scalability reliability obsolescence-avoidance. The world is migrating toward mobile payments on massive-scale millisecond-scale fast back-end data infrastructures and we were moving there too. At Vantiv I worked with encryption with GoldenGate data replication Coherence Cache on top of DB2 databases and large-scale server clustering with Foundry F5 load balancing and multiple redundant geo-diverse data centers.

Prior I was a senior application developer for the Webseries product line at Bottomline Technologies EPAY . In this role I helped to establish architectural patterns implemented new features and functionality and worked on re-architecting and refactoring the legacy implementation to serve in the SaS/mobile multibrowser/multidevice world. Focus on User Experience issues with a competency intensive in AJAX and client-side javascript libraries such as Dojo and jQuery and HTML5 and CSS3.

User Experience/User Interface has been an underlying theme through my career end-user focused information- workflow- and experience-design user aesthetics and usability. My tools of choice for the past several years have been client-side javascript frameworks most notably Dojo. Using advanced javascript CSS3 Dojo and jQuery and CSS frameworks like Bootstrap have built highly-functional client interfaces that feature full internationalization accessibility compliance cross-browser consistency and are performant.

Previously at Bottomline I served as senior developer/architect on a large-scale AP automation system designing and implementing rules-based workflow data analysis and data validation services as well as standards-based external system data acquisition and export.

My programming/coding experience is in enterprise application development Finance/treasury systems Accounts Payable AP and payments processing financial/loan processing web-based eCommerce electronic learning and testing Java intranet knowledgebase and CRM data integrity Business process management and analysis. I am familiar with the current art in object-oriented software development practices web development n-tier server structures database patterns CRM ERP and HIPAA.

I hold a software patent for online educational testing delivery and 4 patent applications in process for rules engine design and implementation.

I have experience with UNIX and NT with TCP/IP networking Domain Name Service Internet Mail protocols network and web site administration.

Before beginning my career as a software developer I was a skilled production graphic artist producing color separation fine typography page layout and design for national account advertising I was also a production/design director of several monthly magazine publications totaling over 1000 pages per month I was production/design director of a regional/local news-weekly publication and prepress shift manager at a large web press facility.

A team-oriented worker. My people skills are very good I am comfortable in customer-facing situations and can present to both executive- and developer-level audiences. I have a unique ability to bridge the space between executive summary and low-level implementation detail.
