|Company confidential |Architect & Lead Software Engineer & Product Owner |NY, NY – Jul 2020 to Sep 2021 |
|We conceived and built a complex multitenant PaaS CRM system with built in VOIP call center tools and tight coupling with SMS and email communications. I |
|created detailed architecture with supporting documentation. I lead onshore and offshore developers. Development of a payment processing platform for credit & |
|debit cards. Using cloud native technologies, agnostic for both AWS and Azure - and based on Node.js and Python microservices with Restful/HAPI and Swagger – |
|with UI based on React Native, responsive for mobile, tablet and desktop. GraphQL was partially used however better restful performance was dramatically gained|
|with HAPI over websockets. The project used third party services such as Tsys, Ofac, Kyc and Twilio. In addition to real time data streams, microservices, PCI |
|compliancy, AI for risk mitigation and anti-money laundering (AML) detection, Twilio VOIP and video services and IoT. Unique features included tight real time |
|coupling for text chat, UX heatmap, SMS, signature capture, UI collaboration, Docusign like features coded from scratch as well as PDF generation. The voip |
|component was better than SalesForce features as it was more of a turret communications consol. Included a complex IAM system based on hierarchal system with |
|both Active Directory and LDAP coupling. Project was deployed in AWS but was also agnostic where it could deploy on any cloud within Docker. DB was a mix of |
|mongoDb and SQL. Microservices supported mixed technologies to allow Python and Nodejs to coexist. Real time high performance from in browser memory caching to|
|latency aware restful calls. Included SHA246 hashing for blockchain as well has complex OCR on bank checks & driver license. |
| |Architect Lead Software Engineer |New York, NY – Mar 2020 to Jul 2020 |
|As a lead software engineer, I worked on their new awards system platform. I lead an offshore development team. I guided the offshore team for tasks, |
|technical issues, architecture, and daily standups. While I did lead, I was also coding. I also did complex documentation as well as some DevOps. Joined |
|meetings with BA, UX and management teams. The technology stack was React, React Native with Nodejs, GraphQL, Kafka, Swagger, microservices, NoSQL and SQL all |
|running in AWS with Docker and Kubernetes. |
| |Solutions Architect & Lead Developer |New York, NY – Jan 2019 to Dec 2019 |
|Develop greenfield architecture with intensive hands-on coding. I authored documentation for their new cloud-based big data BI platform based on AWS and Azure |
|(agnostic to run on either), Node.js, and MVC microservices (mixed Node, Go, .NET, J2EE Java, Python as well as microservices for legacy C++) along with Istio, |
|Docker, Kubernetes, and API Gateway (Azure API management). C++ and .NET support were to allow older brownfield code to temporarily be leveraged to shorten |
|time to market. My efforts covered security, infrastructure (IAC), pipelines, deployments, devops, to low level coding. All data such as raw ethernet to |
|restful and real time transients were stored in massive data lakes (cloud big data). In addition, I built a working POC by hand in JavaScript mixed with |
|Angular 2/7, React Native (for Desktop, iOS and Android apps), Webix, TypeScript. D3, and jQuery. The system included the following: real time using socketio |
|and websockets – with a SignalR POC. Everything was real time. Restful technologies used dependency injection with GraphQL, HAPI and Swagger. The system |
|featured a dashboard designer for drag and drop of real time widgets. Screen recording and playback with heatmap of real time UI analytics. Included were |
|features such as real time sharing and collaboration, chat, toast notifications via push technology, forced UI logouts via push, a comprehensive pivot table |
|where processing was split between the frontend and backend to handle millions of rows. Service workers coupled with HTML5 local storage technologies were |
|included to handle 'offline always' as well as web workers to allow the UI to be more responsive. No third-party libraries were used - not even for features |
|such as collaboration, chat or screen share. Some other details include OAuth2 for authentication and session management, TypeScript mixed with JavaScript, |
|entire server side was stateless, partial responsive design, fully SPA with PWA (progressive web application), customized a complex access control system and |
|included a custom resource management system that would throttle traffic and compute resources based on user or group SLA. This entire POC took 240 man-hours to|
|implement. Did several presentations to CXO management, as well as traveled to other Kantar locations to present and teach for knowledge transfer and handoff. |
|Worked with offshore resources and team members, developed hundreds of pages of architecture documentation and UML diagrams, reviewed nearly a thousand user |
|stories and created project estimates for man hours and costs, and evaluated competing products such as IRI WorldWide BI and analytics tools. Also developed a |
|POC using reactive programming on advertisement media streams. Using Node.js, this reactive programming system used observers to capture data state changes |
|that were injected into both backend DB as well as socketio streams to UIs. Media collected included video streams of advertisements, radio commercials, and |
|printed media. |

|Estee Lauder |Software Architect & Engineer |New York, NY – May 2008 to Sep 2008 |
|As a temporary contractor, assisted their 3rd party development team in deploying newer architectures and development of their international web applications |
|for 120 countries. Our efforts focused on developing their most important sites while handing off remaining development to off shore outsourcing. The |
|infrastructure was LAMP (Linux Apache MySql & Perl) with templates as well as NoSql concepts. Worked on Perl tools and scripts to automatically deploy web apps|
|and for search engine optimization (SEO). Worked on Middle East, Russian, South Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Switzerland sites with respective country |
|specialists. Also worked on Flash 9 (AS3), IE & FireFox, JavaScript, and Ajax. |
|Valign |Software Architect & Engineer |Nyack NY – May 2008 to June 2008 |
|Using C#, I created an installation utility for installing an NT type server/service, and a separate utility for installing an application. Where MSI or install|
|shield type installs failed to meet the demands, this utility was network extensive using http, https, ICMP, and other protocols to programmatically install and|
|configure IIS 6.0 and MS SQL servers. Extensive DOT NET security issues were dealt with as well as registry modification from the code level. This installation |
|utility worked across Windows 2000, 2003, XP, and Vista. Created license and serial number registration for IP protection. |
|Info Data NY / ABS Security |Software Architect & Engineer |Wall Street NY – March 2008 to May 2008 |
|For my direct client I worked on and off as they needed me. I took one of their prototype products and developed a testing utility in C++. Also debugged their|
|JNI / Java code of their prototype. Their product is biometrics device the uses a web-based application running on Tomcat (Java with Spring and Hibernate) web |
|server for door entry control using thumbprints and hand signature for access. I developed a debug tool to locate problems with RS485 & RS422 communications. |
|Modified Java code and created architecture to eliminate their JNI interface. |
|IP-C ip- |Software Architect & Engineer |Paris France– Jan 2008 to Mar 2008 |
|For my direct client (company confidential) in Paris France, company confidential. Took one of their legacy based products and replaced the GUI layer with a |
|new implementation. The original code was written for Windows 3.1 in C. The GUI portion was removed and replaced with an SWT based Java GUI while leaving |
|untouched the business logic and SQL database legacy sections. My efforts included the architecture, prototype development, and performance testing to support |
|such architecture. The GUI used a multithreaded environment with a JNI interface. XML data was used with XSL style sheets for data transforms used in |
|localization and internationalization for multilingual support. Simple GUI components were extended using OOD while complex multithreaded GUI components were |
|written from scratch. The project was under Agile type environment. I spent two weeks in Paris to start the project and the remaining work was implemented in |
|New Jersey, USA. Most coding and documentation was developed in New Jersey with weekly status meetings by phone, IM and emails. Some code was implemented |
|offshore with other developers in developing countries. |
|Dialogic |Software Engineer |Parsippany NJ –Aug 2007 to Dec 2007 |
|I was contracted for a temporary requirement. Developed for Dialogic a test application with a GUI matrix that was written in C/C++ and used XML for storing |
|test criteria such as configuration and results validation. The application linked to their latest Linux and Windows HMP (Host Media Processing) platform. The |
|application tested Dialogic components such as voice (VOIP), video and conferencing with trans-coding. Testing included all conceivable connections held in a |
|matrix, which created positive fail / pass and negative fail / pass results. All levels of code were tested as well as protocol stacks such as H.323, SIP, RTP |
|and G.711, H.263 codecs, and voice & video messaging. For the video services included basic DRM features. Connectivity included PSTN and IP. Work was GUI to |
|low level real-time coding (threads, sockets, messaging). |
|BMGCH |Architect & Developer |New York City, NY – Feb 2007 to July 2007 |
|I was contracted to audit and advise them on how to change the site’s architecture to become reliable and to increase traffic and revenue (analytics). The site|
|included 11 servers hosted at Rackspace. These servers had constant problems that made the site fail frequently. The architecture was Linux, apache, MySQL, |
|and Mod_Perl, also known as LAMP. Mason and CPAN were used as well as a mixture of Apache 1.1 and Apache 2.0. The site was a complex e-commerce system that |
|contained basic shopping carts, search mechanisms, and mass email scripts for traffic generation. It was similar to NetFlix business model where customers |
|would register and could order individual CD/DVD titles or chose titles for their monthly queue. Also included Acerno, Double Click, Dotomi, Consumption |
|Junction and many other traffic generation partnerships. The site was single tiered and required upgrades to multi-tiered architecture with fault tolerance and|
|high availability. I assisted their staff and other consulting companies in maintaining the site while debugging, and adding enhancements. I created various |
|documents include a detailed white paper outlining the steps required to make the system reliable. Built servers and a development environment for load testing|
|and staging. Proved the site could run only on Apache 2.0 with mod_perl and Mason. |
|T-Mobile t- |Architect & Lead Developer |Parsippany NJ –Jan 2007 to Feb 2007 |
|T-Mobile was my direct client. Developed an application in C# .NET that extracted 750 gigabytes of BLOB files from Microsoft SQL servers. This utility moved |
|files from SQL server to a large network storage device. The utility was a Win32 application the contained multi-threaded throttle controls for controlling |
|network traffic. All SQL stored files were extracted by this utility and stored in a hierarchy of directories with accompanying text files for storing META |
|data. The tool also contained feedback display for progress notification. The underlying code was clearly separated from the GUI where a service could be |
|created that would allow the tools to check the SQL server for changes in order to update the file system in an automatic mode. This project was a fixed price |
|contract and was delivered on time. |
|T-Mobile t- |Architect & Lead Developer |Parsippany NJ – Dec 2006 to Jan 2007 |
|T-Mobile was my direct client. I added a web based Outlook like address book to their Business Objects report scheduling application. Similar to the “Address |
|Book Gateway” product by APOS, my application gave T-Mobile the ability to eliminate failures from user interactions. However, unlike APOS, my efforts did not |
|require any workstation installation and was pure (browser) web based. This included robust Ajax based GUI that handled 40,000 addresses, with filter controls.|
|The backend was a .NET and a JSP service that accessed contact details from SQL database and LDAP / Active Directory. Code was in Ajax, .NET, and JSP. |
|Integrated Active Directory / LDAP for the retrieval of email addresses with Business Objects / Crystal Reports. Later created a server-side script that would |
|modify the Business Objects code, live, with out breaching warrantee agreements. This server-side script modifier disabled native Business Objects reporting |
|controls that created too many errors when using defaults. The application greatly simplified and automated Business Objects reporting tool and eliminated 98% |
|of report scheduling errors. |
|Dynotracks |Business Analyst, Architect, Developer |Hackettstown NJ – July 2006 to Dec 2006 |
|For my client I assisted them in the architecture and design of an Ethernet / Wifi UPnP ffmpeg based MPEG4 camera. This camera also included an alarm system |
|with both low power FSK wireless sensors to advanced Zigbee mesh network sensors. The camera contained embedded Linux and had RF FSK 400 MHZ sensors and remote|
|controls. Firewall port forwarding using UPnP was used for PEER-to-PEER video when available. If port forwarding could not automatically be enabled, then |
|video was relayed using servers that I wrote using low level C++ for Linux. I sourced and analyzed various chip sets including SOC based on Linux. I created |
|an architecture where the camera included a built in UPS and left options for miniPCI connections for CDMA/G3 or other cellular technologies to be embedded |
|inside of the camera. Various hardware peripherals were designed to make the camera easy to install. Developed a superior configuration protocol than that of |
|Windows Zero Configuration (WZC) using low-level Ethernet SSID and encryption settings. I sourced MPEG4 chip sets and chose hardware that simplified software |
|requirements such as eliminating the requirement of ActiveX for in-browser control and video player. Assisted the management team in recovering their previous |
|failed investment of $2,000,000 and moved forward towards designs with market longevity. Received cameras from their competitors for reverse engineering. |
|rtCare |Business Analyst, Architect, Developer |Hackettstown NJ – Feb 2006 to August 2008 |
|Developed an Internet based system that unified products of “Multi-Parameter patient monitor” markets including home healthcare and remote monitoring with |
|current market segments such as resting ECG (ICU), Holter, Stress test, ECG analysis, and ECG management & archiving all into one infrastructure with multimedia|
|(mp4 / FLV video), collaboration while maintaining HIPAA compliancy as well as FDA 510k. I analyzed the market, defined cost & pricing models, produced |
|features list, wrote requirements docs, created wire-frames, created the architecture, and developed the prototypes & production level products. This project |
|was called Internet Patient Monitor. It included grid (clustered) servers distributed & dispersed across the Internet for application level load balancing, |
|fault tolerance & business continuity. Custom gateways (router devices) were developed (hardware manufactured in China) for deployment in medical facilities or|
|patient homes for gathering of real time signals via wireless & wired Ethernet and WMTS. The GUI “instrument” is a real time system that displayed patient |
|vitals, demographics, and historical data in any web browser such as FireFox or IE. Specifically the GUI was based on first Adobe Flash and later Adobe Flex |
|forming a cloud-computing environment. The servers were written in C & C++ using low-level sockets (w/QOS), multithreading on Linux. The gateway is an embedded|
|device (no hard drive) based on SOC (system on chip) running minimized Linux with a custom TCP/IP client. Branding, skinning, internationalization, and theme |
|management from a previous project at that was reused. This included administration and management screens and server tools. Also reused |
|video streaming, text chat, voice chat, and extensive drag & drop for collaboration features across the Internet. The IPM project allows ECG technicians |
|anywhere in the world to monitor patients over the Internet in real-time with multimedia contact management & collaboration with medical staff near patients or |
|mobile doctors or patient’s home. Tools were included for nursing stations, digital dashboards, permanent archiving with compatibilities to Philips, GE |
|(Datex-Ohmeda), Draeger, Siemens, & Spacelabs. Also displayed ECG signals on cell phone and PDA devices. GUI screens use XMLHttpRequest with Ajax for RIA |
|functionality that made the user experience real-time. Servers used “mod_Perl”. When required, C++ was used to enhance Perl. BTree db was used for terra byte|
|storage & real time performance. MS SQL in .NET was used as a repository for exposure to Crystal Reports Business Objects. Specialized servers were developed |
|where ECG arrhythmia analysis and video streams were analyzed in real-time for false alarm reductions. Video was FLV based. Notifications extended to SMS, IM,|
|paging using TTS & IVR. Developed a method for packet priority (when QOS was unavailable). Created streams where vitals & video were merged with annotations &|
|metadata. Reduced costs of ambulatory equipment & bedside monitors and outsourcing of EKG monitoring across the world. Applied for FDA 510k approval as well |
|as worldwide certifications, patents, and ISO 9001. |
|T-Mobile t- |Architect & Developer |Parsippany NJ – Feb 2006 to Apr 2006 |
|Reverse engineered Invoq Alarm Point system with the intentions of fixing the product that was not designed nor supported well. Eventually Invoq was abandoned |
|and we developed a custom in house IVR system with open source scheduling based on Ajax. Added text-to-speech, Nuance speech recognition and other features |
|that interfaced to T-Mobile NOC and call center. Allowed Remedy based NOC center to create tickets that our notification server would process. Notifications |
|included 2-way emails, IM, fax, inbound & outbound voice calls, & SMS. Was a mix of Linux Apache w/ mod_perl and Windows .NET (C#, ASP, C++). |
|IP-C ip- |Business Analyst, Architect, Developer |Hackettstown NJ – Jan 2006 to Feb 2006 |
|Custom TCP/IP stack for energy management: Developed a custom Real-Time IP stack for both wired and wireless appliance infrastructures. This stack allows over |
|75,000,000 simultaneous TCP/IP connections to be active on one modest server over a single T1. Linux based, written in C code. TCP connections remained active|
|as the server reboots. Included fault tolerance & load balancing. The final product was impervious to DOS (denial of service) attacks. This system allowed |
|millions of consumer and business appliances to connect to the Internet for service, monitoring, consumables replenishment, and energy management in real time. |
|The customer stack worked with both stateless and state-full firewalls. Allows bypassing of firewall & router issues such as port forwarding. Secure, no |
|configuration, while only requiring custom stack at server. Exceeded A2B & DRM by Axeda, Questra, & Metrix. |
|IP-C ip- |Software Developer |NY City / NJ /PA areas – April 2005 to Dec 2005 |

|Mobile AD HOC Wireless Project (MANET): Assisted Telcordia (SAIC) in the development of a wireless network for an Army contract. System was based on RedHat |
|operating system and incorporated several security requirements on top of the CECOM MOSAIC ADHOC platform. System was deployed using WiFi (802.11) and |
|AN/VRC-99 military Ethernet. We demonstrated working examples in both the laboratory and outside environments using vehicles such as real Hummers. The system |
|contained a custom version of JMap (open source) for displaying real time GPS maps of mobility. The code was written in C, C++ and Java. Protocols used |
|included IPSEC, DRCP, OSPF, DCDP, SIP, YAP, OLSR, HSLS and SCTP. Proved various security attack scenarios that included DRCP depletion and contention traffic |
|with video streams. This network provided mobility for TCP and UDP traffic. The project’s name was TWNA (Tactical Wireless Information Assurance). The system|
|used QOS to manage bandwidth. Efforts included testing and demos as well as coding of the HSLS & OSLR. Custom implementations of HSLS were added to interface |
|with db, routing tables, and message queues based on the original open source. Our implementation included support for both IPv4 and IPv6. Difficulties |
|included porting from NetBSD to RedHat. The original HSLS code was based on open source code from the Champaign-Urbana Community Wireless Network (CUCWN |
|). Demonstrated the feasibility of using this technology for the military. |

|Similar to the Google, MSN, and Yahoo toolbars, the bar was designed to give custom GUI features for a marketing client. Technologies used were BHO (browser |
|helper object), WTL, ATL, MFC, and backend CGI / Perl calls to SQL server. The toolbar offered custom object definitions using XML files. The XML file also |
|processed VB, VBScript, and JavaScript via shells. Also developed the install and uninstall packages using Visual C++, and a version in C#. The toolbar |
|contained menus, dialogs, copy protection, registry manipulation, and animations such as digital dashboards, Flash objects and tickers. Additional support was |
|added for enhanced file uploading, popup stopper, and browser acceleration. Support for Win 95, 98, NT, ME, 2000, XP, 2003 and various browsers. This was a |
|light wrapper for IE and FireFox but a common set of components. |
|IP-C ip- |Senior Architect & Developer |Hackettstown NJ – April 2004 to August 2004 |
|Applications Server Version 2.0: Ported the entire application of Applications Server Version 1.0 to RedHat 9.0, Apache, CGI and PERL (mod_perl) with MySQL. |
|Reused most of the code from Version 1.0 that was browser specific as well as all resource files including graphics and XML / XSL previous efforts. Used |
|popular PERL modules including Image Magick (ImageMagick). Developed our own POP3 / SMTP/ and IMAP compatible (web) browser based GUI. Also developed and |
|tested hooks with Java server side packages including Apache Jakarta with Tomcat, BEA Weblogic (EJB) & JSP, and IBM’s WebSphere. Diversified the authentication|
|system to link mod_perl with OpenLDAP 2.0, included SSL with certificate management. Added custom VB interpreter & byte compiler as well as PERL and |
|proprietary scripting accessible to the consumer (end user). Added web based scripts for management of raw Linux configuration such as sendmail, virtusertable,|
|aliases, access, httpd.conf, passwd, & group files. |

|IP-C ip- |Business Analyst, Architect, Developer |Hackettstown NJ – May 2002 to March 2003 |
|Applications Server Version 1.0: The architecture focused on the best of .NET with the best of pre .NET to deliver maximum flexibility and lowest project risk.|
|Using IIS, MS SQL (7.0 and 2000), Visual Studio 6.0 and .NET, I developed web-based applications that were used for various projects. The applications were a |
|mixture of ASP (with ADO, ADOX, COM+, ActiveX), , , C++, NET and high performance DLLs in C++. The system offered file uploading, file managers, |
|users, groups and branding abilities. Also, designed using JavaScript and DHTML components that allowed Visio like applications generator for designing web |
|sites from with in Internet Explorer. Developed automated components to allow fast web application deployments. Specifically, the system allowed designing of |
|SQL DB web application from with in Internet Explorer (DOM compliant browsers) using DRAG and DROP (drag & drop) environment. The system also contained VML, SVG|
|and TeeChart (tee chart) (3d pie, line, bar charts) 3D charts, graphics GUI and animations. The system maintained cluster and fail over abilities from the |
|browser and server farm. Wrote over 50 individual components for the system that delivered high reliability and easy development environment. Used new |
|technologies and protocols such as VML, SVG, and XML. Used 8192 bit encryption, redundant servers for load balancing, 100% web based management, WEB based |
|reports, and presentations, included billing and accounting. The objective with this applications server was to allow the business secretary or the consumer to|
|build extensive and powerful web based (data base) applications with out any knowledge of SQL, html, scripting, or software development in general. On the |
|business side I was involved in requirements, analysis, architecture and design as well as working with translators for commissioning some work offshore. |
|Efforts were focused on generalizing all requirements. This generalization yielded architectures that were highly flexible. The end result of the greater |
|flexibility and generalization were progressive cost savings in later feature changes to conform to customer requests and market changes. The products were |
|more cost effective while allowing customization and requirements changes that were easier. |

|SIAD smithsind- |Architect, lead developer |Florham Park, NJ - Mar 1997 to Mar 1998 |
|For Smiths Industries Aerospace & Defense, I was the project’s software architect, analyst & lead developer where I applied in the form of COTS technology, |
|various Internet technologies to military and aerospace systems. The starship product was STS97, or System Test Set. This data acquisition system was to |
|interface to various SMS, “1553”, GPIB (IEEE 488), mission, weapons, and avionics field busses and computers for testing and simulation. The original intent of|
|this new project was to be used for contracts of Nimrod and Hawk aircraft with provisions for the Harrier fighter; however, the projects was expanded for the |
|F-22 stealth, on submarines, aircraft carriers and finally complete aircraft simulation. This was to be the first system based on Internet technologies. Costs |
|were radically reduced while performance and source code reusability was greatly increased. The Beta system was a Windows NT Server with three embedded |
|clients. Each client contained an IP stack with an optimized UDP layer for increased packet transmission speed and near zero latency. I wrote this IP stack |
|from the lower level Assembly code to the upper layers of C, and C++, which included the protocols ARP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, and eventually IGMP for multicasting. My|
|involvement started in the specification and requirements, systems design, proposal writing, and hardware and software procurement. Eventually, I focused on |
|collecting various public domain IP stacks, and spent most of my efforts building this high performance communications layer. This code was left with |
|provisions for ATM (QOS) and the eventual IPv6 services. The system was an ATE (automated test equipment) that was Internet compliant that interfaced with |
