Prime Project Management Software

I was the team lead for the reporting feature of a project management web application. I also aided other teams in designing and developing core application framework code.

• Refactored, fixed bugs, and added new features to ~75,000 lines of legacy code
• Refactored reporting into a reusable library so other teams can enable reporting instead of a having an entire team devoted to it
• Aided in the design and migration of the whole product into microservices and to Docker and Kubernetes
• Designed and wrote a service to aid in extracting reporting data from other microservices
• Managed, assigned tasks, and led planning for other developers on the team
• Worked in Java with Spring (Spring Boot), EclipseLink (JPA), and Jersey with Jackson on Weblogic with Oracle Database
• Worked in HTML5/Javascript on the frontend with an in-house MVC framework

Automation/Devops

Along with my primary responsibilities, I saved the company significant time and money by automating many tedious developer processes.

• Developed an development assistant program that developers used day-to-day. It helped developers setup their machines, review code, and manage their workflows
• Automated a tedious, error prone, and manual install process that on average took 1 week into around 45 minutes unaided
• Acted as point of contact for general issues and knowledge across many different teams, and would unblock developers across the organization regularly
• Created a Jenkins pipeline to continuously deliver the program to ~100 developers
• Provided support for developers when their deployments were not working
• Automated Oracle Database Instance setup with Vagrant
• Wrote the developer assistant in Groovy and Python (for Weblogic Scripting)

Mentoring

• Mentored 12 different interns over 3-4 years. Helped them via pair programming, whiteboard teaching sessions, and presentations
• Gave a company-wide presentation on how Git works
• Assisted other developers across teams on a daily basis
