Experience

Technical Lead

• For the past three years I have worked as a tech lead on several projects. In many of these projects I have also worked as an architect and as a project manager in addition to write code. I have interacted with the business analysts in creating design documents based upon their requirements, architected the system and then distributed coding responsibilities to other developers and mange the development process till deployment.
• I also have experience in working with off-shore developers. For example, while working at Dell I was a tech lead for developers from Brazil and India. While working at SPi, I was a tech lead for four developers in India and three located here. I have travelled to India, to train the developers with the asp.net web site I have architected, and employed their coding skills for further development and maintenance of the site. Once I came back to US, had twice-weekly phone conference with them both to monitor the work-in-progress and to assign specific coding tasks.
