Built an integrated tool called mICE which can automate the build & merge

mechanism of entire Ebay code. The activities done under this tool are:

Requirements gathering and designing the various modules

Completely coded and tested a module to automatically create views, builds

the necessary files and keeps the workspace ready for developers to start

working on eclipse

Designed, coded and tested a jar version number generator algorithm to

ensure that every new jar file will have a new version associated with it

across all the branches on eBay code base

Handled over 25 enhancements to this tool from end to end

Created DB scripts for DB migration and data archiving. Also handled DB

replication for the tools database (Master Master configuration, Master

Slave configuration) to ensure high availability of the tool

Handled support and bug fixes for the tool

Release manager of mICE tool with a release every fortnight. I ensure that

all the features are incorporated, tested and deployed on the production on

time.

2. EMC Data Storage Systems: As a Software Engineer

Work Experience: From November 19th 2007 till January 30th 2009

Product: Invista

Technologies used: Java Swings, JUnit, Core Java

Invista is a software product which provides a storage virtualization

solution that runs on intelligent SAN switches (i.e. Cisco or Brocade).

Invista features dynamic volume mobility to move volumes across

heterogeneous storage without disruption, centralized volume management to

allocate and reallocate storage resources from one interface, ensure smooth

running operations, eliminate planned downtime, mirror the data, load

balancing, high availability, and point in time copies of data. Invista

relies on Split-Path Architecture (SPA) to manage data flows.

Roles & Responsibilities:

Worked as the only individual contributor for providing all the GUI and CLI

support to all the new generation switches on all the platforms for the

latest release of the product

Worked on improving the resiliency of the product by developing a product

specific exception handler class which would shut down the GUI if there are

any uncaught exceptions.

Fixed multiple uncaught exceptions which were mainly issues with EDT and

swing worker threads which were exposed as a result of the framework

changes made by developing our own exception handling class.

Developed a JUnit testing framework and integrated that with ant to enable

developers to write their unit tests. Also provided them with a capability

to configure the test cases they want to run during unit testing phase,

configurability for classifying a few critical test cases which on failure

would break the build avoiding checking in of faulty erroneous code.

Worked on packaging the binaries of the host applications for Linux

platform and was actively involved in automating the process including it

in the build script.

The CLI version of our element manager was available only for Windows

platform. Did the porting of the CLI to all UNIX flavors i.e. Linux, Sun

OS, AIX and HPUX.

Currently mentoring 2 college hires in the team and training them on the

product and the technology
