My early assignments as developer writing java application portlets on WebSphere Portal for Sprint PCS, Sheetz, and Allstate and others.
Later sharing tasks of both developing and administering IBM WebSphere product line plus other IBM groups such as Tivoli.
This mainly consisted of standing up WebSphere Portal on which ever OS the client chose (AIX, Windows, Solaris, and Linux).

Confidential

Responsibilities:

I worked exclusively with WebSphere Application servers and messaging.
There were few tools that placed load on message queues, we had to build our own. With a database, WebSphere Application server and MDB’s to place messages on and remove messages from queues we harnessed the internal workings of the application.
This tool aided in the sizing of the WebSphere Instances and the Oracle RAC needed to deliver the daily load of insurance transactions processed daily.
Most assignments in the final 2 years working at Confidential involved performance and/or monitoring (Tivoli, Wily, xmon).
