Employment
Experience
- Next Gen TV App Framework
Developed a framework for apps to run across multiple channels for Next Gen TVs, which are set to go to market in late 2019 or early 2020. This framework forms a base that allows different broadcasters to load specific apps associated with their own channels.
- MasterGreekhttp://MasterGreek.com
MasterGreek is a web app that helps Greek students practice parsing Greek words. It includes a practice mode and a quiz mode. Users can log in to record progress.
- Scheduler Customized for Auto Body Shops
I enhanced the body shop management system that my company already provides with a custom scheduler. Generic scheduling applications did not serve the needs of our clients, so I developed a scheduler that integrates with our existing software to allow body shops to schedule jobs for different bays or technicians. Tickets can be created through the original software, or through the schedule directly. The interface is intuitive, but many customizations make it just what our clients need. For example, clients can put a job in a slot that is too small, and the software will determine if other jobs can be moved while still meeting their commitment times. Optimizations also allow users to view total time available along with largest individual blocks of time available. This helps them make scheduling decisions that make efficient use of their technicians' time.
This is a leading edge feature in its market.
