Timken Steel Level 2 to 3 Interface
I developed a new service using C#, Kepware, and TCP/IP sockets communicating via TNet Strings (for condensed messaging) allowing software engineers to send commands to hardware on the continuously grown billet conditioning line; and get data back. The service is responsible for all level 2 communications on the production line. It reads in less than 1 millisecond.
AXS Software Platform
I provided technical expertise to solve high profile production problems impacting any systems in the enterprise. This included over 40 SQL Server databases, 1 Oracle database, over 2 million lines of C#, PHP apps, JavaScript using multiple libraries, and multiprocess workflows.
Multiplatform Service Bus
http://www.safeguardproperties.com/An enterprise-wide service bus supporting applications on three operating systems in over a dozen programming languages. I implemented a non-SQL Couchbase solution for caching frequently accessed data.
Customer Self-service Portal
https://www.partssource.com/A custom web portal allowing clients to access part information directly which eliminates the need for most orders to go through sales. There was a heavy emphasis placed on an intuitive UX.
NoSQL Engine for Crypto Exchange Rates
I designed and built a custom in-memory NoSQL engine to store/read/write exchange rates for cryptocurrencies across different markets. The project consisted of the engine itself, a library to connect to the engine (server), and the protocol by which the client and server communicate. The implementation allowed for the independent scaling of read operations against the blockchain and analysis of market rates for arbitrage opportunities.
Cogent Solutions
