Experience

Production Client Deployment Automation

I worked on ASP.NET Core-based back-end APIs, a Vue 3-based front end, and an Electron.js deployment application for servers for automated deployment and configuration. The APIs were combined with other products and various VBS and PowerShell scripts and integrated with other products (Active Directory, MECM, PrimeKey certification authority, etc.) I was leading the development of this project.

.NET WMI Queryable Framework

https://github.com/epavvol/WmiQueryableCore

I created a .NET Standard library that makes work with WMI much more efficient and comfortable. This framework is IQueryable interface-based and allows to interact with WMI using fluent API and reduces heavy methods with no type objects to strongly type and has readable one-liners.

Reel Storage Control System

This is a system I created that synchronizes two databases, the vendor's database that controls the reel storage machine and the material replenishment system. The service tracks the state and any changes in reel locations. It synchronizes them and the front-end web application that allows end-users to control the machine and make reel orders based on automatically generated orders.

Internal Material Ordering System

This project is a web-based application allows ordering tools, materials, and services from the sourcing department. This is an MVC web application using a Microsoft SQL Server database. The systems help to make orders and keep track of them, gathering statistics and making reports.
