Employment
Experience
- Experience Monitor 2 – EM2 (Development)
I've worked as the lead architect and back-end developer on EM2, an application built with Java 8 and Spring. EM2 is an application to assess insurance customers' satisfaction levels based on net promoter score and questionnaires. I've been responsible for the architectural decisions including which technologies and APIs to use, how to structure translating system, and usage of design patterns, deployment pipeline, security implementation, REST endpoints layout, and more.
"Everyone was happy, we delivered as promised and under budget [...] the client has taken over maintenance of the solution." – Richard Forsythe, PM - Mhsync (Development)
Worked as the lead architect of an ERP to CRM integration with Data Warehouse. The project was a great success.
Client testimonial: "I highly recommend you for the quality and professionalism that I experienced every step of the way! I look forward to a long lasting relationship. " - GroceryPress (Development)http://grocerypress.com/
GroceryPress is a personalized digital promotions and loyalty applications suite for natural and specialty retailers. I worked as full-stack engineer in various parts of the project, first building a front-end application called Consumer using AngularJS. I structured the whole architecture, CI, and continuous deployment. I built a console application that runs on client machines to extract data from Sybase DBs as well as manipulate and communicate to GroceryPress FTP server using Java with Gradle builds. I worked on the core application on ingestion module to enable Spring Batch ingestion of client data into multi-retailer DB.
- IBM – IEPD (Development)http://www.ibm.com
IEPD is an inter-enterprise data orchestrator that treats and routes calls from failing hardware devices and takes immediate actions to solve the problems. Those calls can come from web service calls or emails. I worked as a Java developer writing components for that application. After 2013, IBM started using a new methodology for development called Liquid, where the development is packed in small pieces and externalized. I worked on implementing this new methodology in our project, preparing environments in cloud servers, planning the specifications for the developers, overseeing the process and reviewing the code.
- Guide to Spring Boot REST API Error Handling (Publication)Spring Boot gives very useful error messages to engineers building REST APIs. Yet, those same messages are noisy and useless for the API consumer, not to mention they reveal implementation details. Luckily, there are simple ways of handling this.
