Experience

GPS Monitoring System for Vehicles

Developed an application hosted in Azure used for fleet management. Vehicles are equipped with a device (GSM and GPS) and send constant data to the system.

The application shows the live position, trips, and historical data of each vehicle and can generate reports. The system is designed to handle more than 20,000 devices.

EAM Software

A very customizable software developed in collaboration with a team from The Netherlands. The sever was .NET and the client was a SPA application with a custom framework. My team was in charge of multiple projects, such as screen design and versioning.

• Screen designer–In this module, the administrators could customize or create new web pages (screens) using the database fields and relations.
• Screen versioning–This allowed the system to store screen customizations as diffs, similar to Git, to simplify the update process.
• Workflow designer–A visual designer with autocomplete used to crate or customize business logic in screens.
• Reservation module–A planning tool integrated with billing and catering. Migrated from .NET 4.5 to .NET Standard and .NET Core 3.

Arhitect & Technical Lead

A CRM application built using React with MUI 5 for the font end and C# .Net core for the server. The application was hosted in Azure.

Other services integrated into the app:

• Twilio for voice calls, SMS, MMS
• Outlook email
• signNow for document signing
