Professional Experience

AT&T Services Inc., St. Louis, MO
2004 – Present
Senior IT Analyst

► Evaluated and adapted several high level architectural approaches such as Object Oriented Programming (OOP), Model View Controller (MVC) design, Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP), and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).
► Pursued and accepted roles such as Lead Solutions Architect and Lead Developer on various application projects with direct responsibility for application architecture and implementation.
► Lead the effort to design and develop several Network Capacity Management applications taking different design approaches and using different software solutions due to variations in project requirements and evolving software frameworks and libraries.
► Recommended and implemented robust and flexible J2EE frameworks such as Struts and Spring by providing a detailed evaluation of the frameworks and presented the results to reshape the team's standard development tools and technologies.
► Researched and adapted many other specific libraries and technologies such as Velocity, Freemarker, webservice tools such as Axis and XFire, AOP programming library AspectJ, JPA using Hibernate, Java Ajax library DWR and was able to integrate them into production scenarios

Accomplishments

► Lead Architect responsible for software architecture, design and implementation of new and innovative approaches and tools such as Springframework, AspectJ, JPA and web services.
► Developed and presented findings to managers and developers showing strengths and weaknesses of J2EE frameworks Spring and Struts, view components like Velocity and JSP, database persistence tools such as Hibernate and OJB, and other libraries and technologies.
► Designed and developed Java packages to utilize Java OLAP API to represent multidimensional data structure as a Java bean and send it to a view component to be displayed.
► Lead development efforts working with multi-teams to utilize internal and external development resources to develop both new business requirement and transition applications support.
► Proposed and utilized AspectJ for handling authentication, authorization, error catching, and logging
to efficiently develop an application
► Designed SOA based solution for a single point of login application (SPL) allowing for participating applications to add users, remove users, reset passwords, and retrieve user information.
► Developed mission critical applications applying ORM tools to applications such as NWCF utilizing Apache OJB, SDC and SPL both embracing Hibernate, and INSIGHT made use of JPA (Hibernate implementation).
