The most amazing...
...thing I've done is a full-scale refactoring and rearchitecting of a Java and C biometric engine product from an on-premise style to a cloud-native SaaS product.
Work Experience
Senior Back-end Architect and Developer
Andromeda Group Latam
- Handled a full-scale refactoring from an on-premises to a cloud-native architecture of a Java and C product with a microservice-oriented API. Deployed it on Kubernetes clusters to achieve more uptime and transactions per second (TPS).
- Completed key tasks, such as tuning JDK, profiling algorithms, debugging native C libraries, porting libraries to Emscripten and WebAssembly, and streaming data with Hazelcast Jet to achieve the optimal TPS for biometric transactions.
- Developed the CI/CD workflow using Gitlab CI to comply with the bank's best practices.
- Defined the programming environment and workflow, including Dockerfile development, and adapted the monolith architecture to a microservices approach using REST and GraphQL endpoints.
- Established the master test plan to cover code coverage testing, load testing scenarios, and high-level functional requirements and implemented it in TestNG with RestAssured.
Senior Back-end Developer
Anses
- Designed a Java-centric solution to efficiently manage IBM mainframe batch jobs, backed by a business process modeling notation (BPMN) engine and integrated with Solr and MongoDB.
- Solved critical problems, including integrating disparate information sources into a Solr engine and providing easily searchable data created by BPMN processes and human-interaction tasks.
- Integrated BPMN and RPG jobs using the JT400 connector.
Senior Back-end Developer
Banco Supervielle
- Architected a complete fingerprint and face recognition biometric solution to register, verify, and identify bank customers across services.
- Designed exposed APIs for other products and services that used the biometric engine.
- Integrated Elasticsearch to enrich and expose new APIs, including legacy info and new biometric metadata.
Back-end Architect
Banco Supervielle
- Architected SOA projects that exposed the legacy banking core, consisting mainly of AS400 programs, using SOAP for several bank products and services.
- Designed APIs based on functional layers and role-based access control for those APIs and provided a back office for the SecOps staff.
- Profiled Java at CPU and memory levels to meet the TPS goals and ensure platform health and availability.
- Led teams of over five people that coded specified service contracts and interacted with COBOL programmers.
Senior Back-end Developer
Itaú
- Architected, developed, and maintained a self-service customer terminal.
- Designed Java APIs and implemented them with an AMF endpoint to a web back office and the Apache Flex front end.
- Created middleware that integrated the legacy banking core and exposed services to the API and back office components.
Senior Java Developer
Itaú
- Architected, developed, and maintained a Java IVR solution integrated into the Cisco UCCX platform while collaborating with a team of over six people.
- Integrated a legacy bank mainframe core with an SOA using Apache CXF.
- Designed APIs exposed to an IVR engine and used middleware to set up Cisco call flows with the bank call center.
- Created and provided metrics for the call center dashboard using a management back office portal and Jasper Reports Library.
Java Developer
Oracle
- Developed an oil and gas product with JDeveloper, BC4J, UIX, and Oracle Database for YPF Argentina.
- Designed complex process algorithms for contract sizing and accounting in oil and gas production.
- Refactored the entire product from BC4J and UIX to Spring, Hibernate, and Facelets.
Experience
SOBIO.cloud Biometric Engine
http://www.sobio.cloudI integrated native C libraries that were part of the solution, including OpenCV, Intel's library, and fingerprint biometric drivers. To comply with the bank's best practices, I developed the CI/CD workflow using Gitlab CI and defined the programming environment and workflow that included Dockerfile development. Also, I set up the master test plan to cover code coverage testing, load testing scenarios, and high-level functional requirements and implemented that using TestNG with REST Assured.
