Employment history:

Company HP Enterprise Service Nov 10 to date

Position Net Enterprise Application Architect

Responsibility As an Enterprise Application Architect, I am working on a system designed to serve the DMV operation of a large Midwest state in the US. There are more than 100 team members in multiple locations. The size of codebase is as large as 1.1 Million line of code. Prior to my involvement, the project had been going on for years without deliverables due to problems such as architectural design and code quality. There were also issues with project management, client management, development process and technical know-how throughout all levels of the team. Since I took over the role of application architect, I have made significant improvements to the state of the project. From process perspective, I established work item tracking process, code review process, unit test development process, refactoring process and code quality monitoring process. From technical perspective, I have established code refactoring guideline, .Net programming guide, SQL programming guide and coding standard. From architectural perspective, I overhauled the architectural design for exception management, data access layer and UI design pattern. Under my technical leadership, the quality of the code base has improved significantly. With the constant delivery of new features and bug fixes, we managed to reduce the LOC ( Line of Code) by 18%, the improved maintainability Index by 10% and reduced Cyclomatic Complexity by 18%. Code analyze warning message reduced by 10%. All these improvements directly contributed to lower bug rate, and lower “bug reopen” rate. It is worth pointing out that the progress was made in the course of 6 months or so, with no or minimum dedicated resource for re-engineering / refactoring effort, and no or minimum impact on the time line of the project. My knowledge and experience in application development process and my expertise in .Net and SQL/Server are major factors for success
